Where does the message appear: in Firefox or in a text editor?

If the shortcut does not open Firefox, the hidden .url extension might need to be re-associated with Firefox. (In Windows XP, this was easy, but in Vista and Windows 7, this might require a registry edit.)

That is a problem with the default browser that isn't working properly as posted above.
