User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U, Windows NT 5.0; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0

Double clicking a file that contains spaces loads Firefox, but fails to load the
file, if more than one profile exists and the profile manager is NOT set to
'don't ask at startup'.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create more than 1 profile.
2. Disable 'dont ask at startup' option in profile manager.
3. Close firefox.
4. Find file with space in filename.
5. Double click file to open.
6. Choose required profile when dialog window opens.


Actual Results:  
7. Observe error message due to bad filename handling.

Workaround : open Firefox with desired profile, drag file in using 'drag and drop'.

Expected Results:  
7. Firefox correctly opens file where the filename contains a space.
