I tried three method, and none of them worked. 1. I uncheck the pop-up 2. the box under option/advanced of checking it as default browser is uncheck 3. the about:config browser.shell.checkdefaultbrowser was set to false.

but every time I open firefox the check still pops up. which is very annoying!!

also when I close the window with multiple tab warning, even I unchecked it, it still pops up the warning next time.

the OS Windows 8

Do you want Firefox to be your default browser? Just click Yes, and you won't see the pop-up again.

Hello, see in the next article how to lock the specific preference:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

use the next code line into the mozilla.cfg file :

lockPref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false);
