Default Default browser?

Does anyone know how to read/find the current users default browser via VBA?

(Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera
Browser, etc...)

I'm not talking about opening a website in the default browser, but finding
out which browser the current user is using as the default one...

I'm guessing it must be somewhere in the Registry, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
since all users on the same computer are allowed to have their own choice of
default browser - but where?

A search on Google didn't help, but perhaps, I shouldn't get it from the
Registry at all???

So, how to tell which browser is the default one?


TIA,

CE
