I'm making an OEM CD for a couple of family members and I want to make Mozilla Firefox the standard browser. I figure my family won't know what hit em' and just enjoy the ride. But if not Internet Explorer's always in the menu. But still I'd like to make an OEM CD for my self where Firefox is the standard browser no matter what user you are (but is it possible?)

Thanks for reading.

Edit: Have you noticed that in the Windows XP start-menu when Firefox is set as the standard browser you right-click it and bam: you've got the ability to go into Firefox setting window without having to open Firefox it self (tho it would be opened technically speaking (I think)).
