Firefox is my default browser but when I receive an email in Outlook 7 that has a link, the link opens in Internet Explorer. How do I get the link to open in Firefox?

Set Firefox as your default browser to see if that helps:


Tools > Options > Advance > General and CHECK to make Firefox as your default browser.

The following link might give you an idea though it is for Outlook Express. Do you have ZoneAlarm?

Last suggestion: Changing the default browser in your PC (you might have done so already):

In Windows XP, you can change it as follows 

   Start menu
   Set Program Access and Defaults

But I don't know about Windows 7 since I am using XP, sorry.
