Msn has become our default browser instead of firefox when we ask for Firefox

We have not designated MSN as our default browser and it keeps coming up as default. We find it irritating since it just makes more steps.

http://msn.com might be your home page it is not a browser. Microsoft's browser is Internet Explorer. If you start in Firefox you stay in Firefox.

Having msn.com as your home page, if that is the problem, still doesn't really explain how that makes more steps for you. So we have to assume what you want to do, or expect.

Type about:home into the location bar, and if that is what you want for a home page then

  1. Tools ("Alt + T") > Options > General
  2. When Firefox starts: Show my home Page
  3. Click on "Restore to default"
