Does anyone know where in the registry the associations for things
like.. clicking on a URL in a text message so that it automatically
launches Pocket IE are stored?

Mine is broken.. (since removing netfront).. if i click a link it
gives me an error saying it cant open the URL.. i have to first open
IE, then paste in the link..

Same thing with stored favorites.. cant click them and auto open.. it
just takes me to an explorer style window but with the PocketIE
symbol..

Thanks

under the .url key.. but it was still a no go even after rebooting..
