Firefox is adding .htm to the end of .msg files when it tries to open them

I am using an online DMS solution that allows me to archive emails and documents. When I try to open an email that has been saved, it asks me what I would like to do do with the file.

If I choose open with Firefox, it opens in a new browser and is not legible.

If I choose to open it with Outlook, it will download a temp copy and add a .htm extension and tosses an error in Outlook saying that the command line argument is not valid.

If I choose to save the file, it will download the file without the .htm extension.

How do I stop it from adding the .htm extension?

Thanks

Rob
