when I cut and paste an internet address from Mozilla to Vista desktop, I get a Chrome icon - but Mozilla is my default browser!

- I create new shortcuts no my Vista desktop, pasting in the web address displayed in a Mozilla search.

- The icon for these shortcuts is defaulted to the Google Chrome icon.
- I have Chrome installed, but it is never my default browser 
- I don't want to reset every shortcut icon by hand
- I program, also using XP, Win7, Win8

Thanx much, Bob

Maybe toggle the https/http default program in your Windows Control Panel and Restart the Computer?
