how to access default browser settings?

Jan 6, 2006 9:04PM PST

Changed my default browser to Firefox in XP SP2, and have had strange happenings since. For example, Firefox now won't remember the cookies/settings (e.g., language choice for Google) it used to remember perfectly well. This is so no matter to what degree I allow cookies. How do I go back to IE as default? Thanks.
