Popup Windows and Default Browsers

[Raffi]

Hi,

As far as I know, normally popup windows open in the default browser.
Is there a way to make popups open in a specific browser (in my case
Internet Explorer) when the default browser is a different one?

Thanks,
Raffi

No. Executable files on the user's system can open any browser they want by
referring to the browser executable (for example McAfee Security Centre
ignores the default browser and opens Internet Explorer), but this is
inaccessible to websites (unless there's a major security hole).

If you ask yourself how you would manage that on a non-IE computer then
the answer becomes obvious in a hurry. You can't dictate to me (or
anyone else) what browser to use.
