Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Find an email link such as a MAILTO one. 2. open it and use Firefox.exe as your email client when asked what program to use to open the link. (I assume you don't have a default email client setup in firefox yet) Actual Results: keeps generating a new tab in firefox, you MUST close firefox to stop it. It makes Firefox consume 150mb~ memory. Expected Results: either 5 new tabs then a warning or just... have firefox report that it itself can't be used in that manner.
