If I try, the browser hangs. 

If I don't, it works without a hitch. I only downloaded Mozilla because I've
just downloaded Freenet and wanted to try it out - as recommended - with Mozilla
as the default browser (or any non i.e. browser) 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Launch Mozilla
2.Answer "Yes" to set Mozilla as Default Browser
3.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla freezes ("not responding") but can be closed.

Expected Results:  
Set itself as default browser
Harry, can you try again with Mozilla 1.3b?

Harry, bug 140995 was fixed after 1.3b was released.  Could you try again with a
post-1.3b release?
OK. Problem resolved. Version 1.3 works.
