It's not necessary for him to remove or disable Mozilla. I have all 3 installed and everything works just fine here for all 3. But I do believe Paul mentioned he was running version 1.5 Firefox, which may be the difference he is experiencing that we are not.
I'm inclined to believe also that the upgrade to version 1.5 made the difference. A number of people reported success a while ago in using Firefox with kmail, but that's before Firefox 1.5 came out. There might be a connection between the security improvements supposedly in 1.5 and the fact that it pays no attention to a URL on the command line.
So is there anyone out there who's been able to get kmail links working with Firefox 1.5? And if so, what happens when you issue the command from a shell:
firefox http://www.suse.com

I have FireFox 1.5 installed. When issued from a console, firefox http://www.suse.com/ opens the suse web page correctly. When issued from a KMail link, it works correctly but, without the %u option, or it will open two tabs with the same web page (suse). The problem for me is that it does not work from within Thunderbird links. However if I already have a Firefox instance running, it opens me a new instance. -- Rui Santos http://www.ruisantos.com/
