I think you'd have to read from the registry from certain file extensions in HKCR.

This should read default browser (tested on WinXP):
ReadRegStr $R0 HKCR ".htm" ""
ReadRegStr $R1 HKCR "$R0\shell" ""
ReadRegStr $R0 HKCR "$R0\shell\$R1\command" ""
; $R0 = "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" %1
