I just switched to Windows 8 and I have Opera set as my desired browser but in Calibre when I click on Search the Internet it always uses IE and because of its security requires me to permit it to use ActiveX when I search FictionDB. I want to have the plugin use Opera instead of IE and that is NOT configurable via the changes permitted easily. I can select different sites to examine for the books, but not select the browser to be used.

HELP.... what do I change and where do I change it?
