Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. click url hyperlink from an email. 2. 3. Actual Results: two intances of firefox browser launched.

But i also got a "browser locator" dialog box. This was looking for a .exe. I assumed i must go out and find the firefox.exe so i could associate it as the default browser.
