User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

When clicking on a link from other software such as an email client, or instant
messaging multiple tabs open if there are pipes in the querystring.
For example:
http://www.yahoo.com?b=1|2|3|4|5
If clicked on from Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Mozilla Mail, or an instant
message will open firebird with five tabs. The first tab will have the
http://www.yahoo.com?b=1 url. The second tab will do some sort of background
search and redirect to a different url. The third tab will go to another url,
etc for the five tabs.
If I type the above url directly into the location bar the described behavior
does not happen. The url opens as typed.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Firebird as your default browser.
2. Send yourself an email with the url http://www.yahoo.com?b=1|2|3|4|5
3. Click on the link when you receive the email.
4. Firebird will open with five tabs. First tab has http://www.yahoo.com?b=1,
second tab does some sort of lookup for "2", third tab does lookup for "3" etc.
Actual Results:
Firebird opens with five tabs.
Expected Results:
I would expect a single tab to be opened to the url I clicked on. This is the
behavior on Mozilla 1.5.
I have not implemented any kind of skin etc. A co-worked installed a fresh
version of Firebird (never been installed before) and had the same behavior.
