Seen using  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9b2pre) Gecko/2007120305 Minefield/3.0b2pre.

1. Install Minefield in the default directory on Vista. Use a new profile.
2. Have Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 installed on the machine, but *not* set as default for mailto. Have WinMail set as default (I checked in default program to make sure WinMail had all the program defaults)
3. Launch a bugzilla link and select Thunderbird in the Launch App dialog.

Expected: Since I selected Tbird it would launch.
