I tired to register a custom url protocol using the example given in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol

My application launched successfully but firefox failed to pass the arguments to the exe where as IE and chrome was successfully passed the arguments. Is this a bug in firefox and also let me know how i can launch an local exe with arguments passed to it.

I wonder whether you need to use a syntax similar to the file protocol when specifying the path to the file you want to launch... If you open the page in Firefox, copy everything after file: and then use that after your custom protocol, can Notepad open the file?
