Thanks, Tony, but I want to open the browse when I click a link of my
Thunderbird. That link, if I understand correctly, shows how FF open
Thunderbird when I click a mailto: link.

Then I added the network.protocol-handler stuff as described under 
mozilla web site, then, aha, Thunderbird now asks me if I want to open 
the link but then just nothing happens : no firefox opens at all.

I remember my thunderbird is my download, not yum. So I use yum to 
download the version 2.0.0.16 then it works just fine.

Now when I open the 2.0.0.17 thunderbird, I still have same problem, and 
with 2.0.16 version, it works !!!
