Aha! I found the problem. Firefox was set to be the default browser, IE was set to not be the default browser. However, *.htm files were still set to use IE, while *.html files were set to use Firefox.
Once I got that item taken care of, Firefox now launches.

I see what you mean by the insistence to use IE. What part of "Firefox is default" does XP not understand? [img]./modules/mdforum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Yep. And it's particularly obnoxious to products like HL that do everything possible to be properly behaved Windows programs, yet Microsoft's crapola ends up making it look like we're doing it wrong.
That's why I switched to the Windows Explorer suggestion. If you can get a file to open with the correct program by double-clicking it within Windows Explorer, you've basically got the battle won. Until that works, there's no point trying it from within another program like HL.
