[CS-FSLUG] Firefox and Thunderbird

Hi,
   I installed the latest Mozilla.org builds of Firefox and Thunderbird 
on a Mandrake Linux system running GNOME 2.4.x a short time ago. Here's 
the problem: when Thunderbird attempts to open a web link, Firefox 
starts a separate process and thus tries to get the user to switch 
profiles (since the main one is already in use). Any ideas on how to 
get Thunderbird to send the URL to the already open Firefox process 
rather than starting a new one?

	Thanks,
		Tim
