Reproducible on the 01/15 Nightly with Thunderbird 17.0.2. I opened two Thunderbird profiles. All the links from the first one were loaded fine in Nightly. I got the following message for all the links I tried to open from the second profile: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.".
