So, you are like me, using Windows Vista and mIRC, and getting fed up with that it always opens Internet Explorer as the default (shit) web-browser. After lurking around a little on the mIRC-forums, here’s a fast work-around until Microsoft pulls their selfish fingers out of their ass and let us set Firefox as the default browser.

Open the script-editor (ALT-R), go to the Remote-tab, make a new file, and copy&paste the following into the new file:

on $^*:HOTLINK:/^\W*(((?:https?|ftps?):\/\/|www\.)\S+)\b/:*:return
on $*:HOTLINK:/^\W*(((?:https?|ftps?):\/\/|www\.)\S+)\b/:*:run firefox.exe -new-tab $regml(1)

Save. You’re done! Now all those pornlinks you click in mIRC will open safe and sound in Firefox!
