User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

Previously only used Mozilla + Mozilla Mail. Then installed Firefox and still
everything ok. Then starting using Outlook 2003 for some accounts, and now
FireFox insists to start Outlook whenever I click on a mailto: link.

I have configured Mozilla Mail to be the default email program in
Control-panel/Add remove program.

Mozilla still starts Mozilla Mail when I click on a mailto:-link, which is correct.

Reproducible: Always

What program starts when you type in mailto: and hit enter in the 
/start/run...

this is a MozMail bug, it doesn't register mailto: properly on Windows.
