AIM Default Browser

I removed Mozilla from my PC and installed Opera. Once I installed Opera, I went on AIM and clicked on a link. I got an error saying that it cannot find the program to launch the link, so I browse through the directory and highligh opera, and then click OK and then click on "Make Default Application" . Then I click OK, and the website loads. Great. But if I exit out of the site, and click on the link again, it does the samething. I checked AIM options and it does not say anything about default browser. So I reinstalled AIM, and it's still doing it.

Anybody had this problem before? I once fixed it, but I forgot how to do it. Thanks for the input!
