In FC2, I had installed both Firefox and Thunderbird from Mozilla.org. They were not "resident" as part of the distro. With CentOS4, they are "standard" features. After I adjusted "Preferred Applications" applet to accommodate the change of locations, all started working properly.
Thanks for allowing me to take up space and bandwidth.

I meant to say that I left my home directory intact so I would _not_ have to re-option, etc...
Good Morning--
Since installing CentOS4 the other day, I've had trouble with Thunderbird 1.02 when attempting to click on a link within an email. Rather than opening a tab in Firefox 1.0.4, I get an error message:
"Error showing url: There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location."
When I installed CentOS, I left my home directory intact so I would have to re-option apps I had already been using.
Has anyone else had this problem...and found a cure? I did check the archives, but didn't stumble upon anything useful.
Thank, Dick
