Guys, Hopefully this will save others the grief it caused me. After upgrade to Firefox 4, clicking links in an email to http:// https:// etc... did nothing. It was a complete PITA copying links from email and pasting them into the browser (middle-click paste anywhere in the page) After looking, I found an answer on the Arch Linux bbs. Basically, in tbird, you must: (1) Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Config Editor: search: "network.protocol", locate: network.protocol-handler.warn-external.ftp network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https ** set each to "true" AND restart Thunderbird (2) send yourself an email with a good link for each eg.: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=115524&p=1 ftp://mirror.services.wisc.edu/mirrors/mysql/Downloads/ (3) click on the link in your email, the navigate to /usr/bin/firefox and choose "[x] remember my selection" or whatever it says; and then links in Thunderbird emails will once again open in firefox as they should. It looks like some links or something were forgotten as part of the FF4 update. Wolfgang - can FF4 be fixed to do this automatically on update? -- David C.
