Firefox is associated with the html file type. When I try to open a html file by clicking on a file name in a local subdirectory, I get an error message: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (c) isn't associated with any program. The files are all located in the c:\.... drive, so I am assuming Firefox is looking at the path as a protocol. I am using Win XP and Firefox 3.09.14.
