Default How do I disassociate IE from all links and file types?

[Crossposted to IE General. This is for Outlook Express]

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Set Program Access and Defaults |
Custom + Down Arrow | Choose a default Web browser. Select the radio button
for Firefox.

I use Firefox. But recently, if I click on a link in a newsgroup post IE
tries to open it--sometimes. (Don't recall if it occurs w/ links in
emails.) Not only do I not want IE to do this, though it tries, it doesn't
actually open the link successfully. It gives the msg: invalid syntax
error.

How do I make it so that IE does not try to open ANYTHING (which is it had
been working)?
