there should an option in the general tab in properties to check to see if Firefox is still default and then you can set it again from there I think.

I would advise against uninstalling IE permanently unless you get IE tab add on for FireFox. There are some webpages(especially Microsoft download type) that insist on using IE. They just won't work in Firefox, Chrome, Opera or any other browser except IE. Keep that in mind. IE Tab is a great add on for Firefox that embeds an IE tab in Firefox.
