There can be several issues. Thunderbird can only use that if everything needed is installed. I (try to) attach a very small test application which will show us if Gio is working as expected on your system. Just call "gio-protocol-test http" You can also post the output of ldd /usr/lib(64)/thunderbird/components/libmozgnome.so to see if it can be loaded from Thunderbird. Wolfgang
