Opening a work document, it goes in infinite loop.
When I try to open a word document in Firebird, it asks for
1 - save it to disk
2- open it using an application , then it gives choice to browse.. And now if I
choose Firebird.exe as an application to open it.. Then it starts opening
infinite no of new browser windows..


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a word document in Firebird
2. Choose to open it with an application
3. Choose Firebird.exe to open it.

Actual Results:  
it starts opening infinite no of new browser windows..

Expected Results:  
It shouldn't have allowed choosing firebird application from with firebird
application. It is obvious , it oes in infinite loop.

Not a bug.
If you deliberately force Firebird to do something that it is clearly not
suitable for, things like that have to be expected.

-> INVALID
