hello all.

i just got this sorted and thought you should all know.

when clicking on links etc in thunderbird they allways opened up in konquerer and i wanted them opening in firefox.

after looking up how to do this i found people had solved it by writing shell scripts etc and going to a lot of trouble.

then i found this very effective and quick fix...

edit the file... /home/logon/.mozilla-thunderbird/xxx.default/prefs.js

(the xxx in this path will be random letters and numbers)

then add the following to the bottom of the file making sure that before you do this both firefox and thunderbird are closed...

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http","mozilla-firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https","mozilla-firefox");

now when you click on links in emails they will open in firefox.

regards to the community.
