Details

Some protocol handling apps require specific command line params indicating the type of action to take. When firefox has a user defined protocol handler (not the system default) these extra parameters are lost. WinMail.exe is a good example with the mailto protocol - "c:\(path)\winmail.exe mailto:foo@bar.com" will launch winmail, but fail to open the compose view. For this to work, it must be of the form - "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" /mailurl:"mailto:foo@bar.com" nsLocalHandlerApp's LaunchWithURI will need to be updated.
