211730 - Internet shortcuts will not open Mozilla

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 69114

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Gale Andrews]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Avant Browser [avantbrowser.com])
Build Identifier: 1.4

Internet shortcuts open with rundll32 and then this program I think interprets 
the file association for URL: http:// to open the web browser stated in that 
association. So if URL: http:// contains Mozilla.exe correctly pathed Mozilla 
should open when clicking on an internet shortcut. Unfortunately the file 
association in URL:http created when Mozilla is set as default browser will not 
open Mozilla (error > you need to creat an association with a program in File 
types.)   I cannot open internet shortcuts now unless I remove the URL: http:// 
entry and then IE opens the shortcuts (which is not what I want) 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.covered above 
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
error message stated above 

Expected Results:  
should have opened the target webpage of the shortcut
