Default Internet Explorer keeps sneaking itself into being the default browser

For example when I clicked 'yes' a fewm inutes ago for ccleaner saying 'visit the ccleaner website for update' it went onto IE not Firefox. Firefox is set as the default browser but still this happens, i absolutely hate htis becasue it is so cumbersome when it loads up.

Under your start menu you should see "Set Program Access and Defaults" In there choose FIrefox as your default browser. That should fix it.
