Plase note that the bug that this was marked as a duplicate of is Windows-specific and this bug is aimed at Mac OS X. AFAIK, Windows and Mac OS X has very different mechanisms when it comes to laucnh default programs/protocol handlers.
Status: RESOLVED → UNCONFIRMED
Resolution: DUPLICATE → ---
Tbird 1.0, OSX 10.3.latest, following a news:// URL in Firefox causes Tbird to activate and attempt to subscribe. If the server is not in my account list, it launches the new account wizard.
