Looking for a Button add-on for FF that will launch TB (or any app). The GetMailPlus add-on I was using is now broken

There are several add-ons for FF than launch specific apps. A generic "press the button, launch any app" would be the most useful. Surely this already exists?

Hi, have a look at Toolbar Buttons - if there isn't what you want, you can create one!

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

Thanks. The Read Mail button will launch TB (or any other app). Once installed you need to go to AddOns->ToolBar Buttons->Options, and enter the path to TB such as C:\program files\mozilla thunderbird\thunderbird.exe. Do not use enclosing quotes on the path.
