Vista and making Firefox the default


My roommate uses Vista, and uses Firefox as his web browser. The problem is, that when I send him a link over IM or he gets a link through other programs, they want to open in IE no matter what (even after selecting Firefox in the Default Programs application.)

Is there a registry entry or tweak for force Firefox to be the default handler for web links no matter where the source?
