Under tools>options>advanced, I don't get a full window. Cannot set FF as my default browser.

I changed from a View Sonics monitor to a Samsung 20." I've tried changing resolutions to no avail. When I click on Tools>Options>Advanced, I'm supposed to get a full window. The bottom half of mine is cut off and I cannot set FF to be my default browser. Anyone know what to do? Many thanks and may the Fox keep wrapping his tail around the globe.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Tools>Options>Advanced - ??? That is the location of the default browser preference in Firefox 3+ versions, Firefox 2 and earlier had it under Main.

How about Tools > Options >> Main - System Defaults ?
