Go to Orange FF button/tools, > Options >Applications, search for "mailto:" then change the action to "Use thunderbird", then click OK. If it is not in the list, select use other, then browse to "thunderbird.exe" which is usually in "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird".

Helps?

Set both the "Firefox mail client" and your "OS default mail program"
