Where the heck have the Internet settings gone in Panther?

I can't seem to stop that brushed metal freak Safari from loading instead of Camino...

Searched high and low through the new "crowded" preference panes, can't find the damn settings

It's in the preferences of Safari and Mail for web and mail. I agree this is silly. However, if you can find a copy of 10.2's Internet prefpane, it still works, or you can download MoreInternet from MacUpdate.

Say again?

The operating system setting for default browser is within Safari? The operating system setting for default mail client is within mail.app?

Isn't that the kind of manipulation best left to Microsoft?

Cheers dude - I wouldn't have even thought to look in Safari. Maybe in 10.4 the entire system preferences will be contained within the Calculator

These two programs both restore the functionality you're speaking of:
