From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.5 [en] (WinNT; I) BuildID: Mozilla (Build ID):2000112920 Telnet protocol is not a registered protocol with the browser. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enter a telnet site in the URL for eg:telnet://zircon.austin.ibm.com 2.Press enter. Actual Results: It shows a dialog box saying "Telnet is not a registered protocol with the browser". Expected Results: An window should open with the title "telent.exe", and should contain a logon prompt.
But telnet is now included with Mozilla and shouldn't be. Mozilla is a webbrowser. Not a multipurpose thingy...:) Mozilla could/should ask the user to specify the path your your existing telnet application.
