I have mirc installed and would like to use my version with the script that I am
using to open the links on webpages to open mirc servers/channels.  There is no
way to disable chatzilla which forces me to use IE and I don't want to do that.
 Is there a patch coming out where I can disable chatzilla within the browser
and use my own mirc client?  Please advise.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on any mirc link on any webpage
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Opens chatzilla

Expected Results:  
Want to open my own mirc client.

  user_pref("network.protocol-handler.external.irc", true);

set that pref in about:config - right mouse button -> new -> boolean, name
network.protocol-handler.external.irc, value true.
