What does bother me tho is that I've been threatening to give Linus (mint?) a serious tryout for waaaay too long, and it's gotta go on my 'gotta do' list.
I've about had it up to *here* with the M$ racket.
It runs fine on my PM 24.5
I run AdBlock + the popup addon + the element hiding helper.
Ghostery too.
“Am guessing that there was enough griping re PM being mistakenly identified as FF that the devs got busy on it.”

Thanks for the link, didn’t find anything for my specific problem but did find a bunch of other good stuff.
My problem isn’t a problem really even if my links in email open in Firefox they still open, I can copy and paste to eM.
In PM, click > Tools / Options / Advanced / General tab / and at the bottom, click the bar to make PM your default browser.
Am guessing you never specified a default browser after making the switch to PM, and that should fix your problem.
If not, there's prolly a similar option that needs checked in your email app to point it to PM instead of FF.
Thank you. Just applied the update.
That fixed it thanks, I love freepers always there to help the technologically impaired.
(just don't ask me any hard stuff .. lol)
Placemark so I can do this tomorrow.
Is Pale Moon your default browser?
Similar question:
Check that firefox is not your default browser in settings.
