How to get RenWeb to use Firefox instead of Wine IE

In the Tips & Trips section for RenWeb, Randy writes, "RenWeb utilizes an internet browser to preview and print your reports. I have found the current version of FireFox (3.6.3) to handle this process better than Internet Explorer version 6.0. You can now automate the install of FireFox 3.6.3 with RenWeb with the following link: http://www.codeweavers.com/bin/c4p/5534:4595 ."

I'm trying to get this to work. I installed Firefox 3.6.3 in my RenWeb Bottle. But RenWeb still send reports to Wine Internet Explorer. What's the trick to getting it to use Firefox?

Let me hasten to say that I'm a CrossOver newbie, so it's quite possible there's something wrong with my setup. I installed RenWeb with the C4P file about a month ago. Then I installed Firefox with the link above and added it to the RenWeb bottle. Here's the list of apps in my RenWeb bottle:
Mozilla Firefox (3.6.3)
Microsoft Data Access COmponents (MDAC) 2.8 Service Pack 1
Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0
RenWeb.com
Microsoft Virtual Basic 6 Service Pack 6 runtime
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable

Thanks to anyone who can help,
Joanne Wilson
