Port Forward Buttons not opening web Browser

[Tang0]

I've looked about, and tried fixing this using the "Set program access and defaults" in the control panel, but it does not seem to be changing anything. This started after installing SP3, AVG8, and Ad-Aware2008. Possible conflict with virus/spyware programs?

EDIT

Also, this is V. 1.7.7. I have tried turning off Ad-Aware, but AVG8 is hard to get rid of short of uninstalling.

EDIT

Here is the Hijack this log.

What is your default browser set to?

[Tang0]

Firefox

[jewelisheaven]

And when you open firefox it doesn't ask you if you want to set it as default? There's problems with it detecting custom pathing ... like if you have a mobile firefox profile you can't use built-in uT open search box....

What about if you open IE... does it ask if it can be default? :/ I don't know. That's a pretty vanilla install. Though granted i haven't tried SP3 just yet to poke at it...

[Ultima]

Can you try switching your default browser to something else, then switching back to Firefox as the default? Do this in both the access defaults applet, and in the browsers themselves.

[Tang0]

So, after a couple of restarts, the button just decides to work. I really don't know what to say.

Windows voodoo I was casting my magic on you.

In other news: glad it's fixed
