User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; ru-RU; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; ru-RU; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041027 Firefox/1.0RC1

After installing FireFox 1.0RC1 I'm unable to open files from directories with
national names (that contain russian letters, for example) by clicking file in
shell.
I still can open file via File -> Open File menu.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Explorer.
2. Navigate to a directory with russian name.
3. Double-click on HTML-file.

Actual Results:  
Firefox shows "File Not Found" dialog.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should open specified file.

Possibly this can be due to Unicode<->cp1251 conversion. Possibly, shell passes
path in 1251, while firefox wants unicode and so on.
Does this only happen with ".html" files and not with ".htm" files?
this happens on both registered filetypes - .htm and .html files (possibly it
will happen on all filetypes with registered to firefox)
