This is the same problem I came here to report.  I too have Thunderbird 0.7.2,
and Firefox 0.9.2.  I have XP SP1.  I have a profile for myself and a profile
for my wife.  This behavior exists in either profile.  I have not tried
configuring IE as my default browser with T-Bird as my default mail client. 
Currently all Mozilla set as default.  This problem occurs in HTML mail also if
a picture is a link.  Verified all "Set Program Access and Defaults", set to
Custom with Mozilla as all default.  Took off allow access to IE or OE.
