Firefox 3.6.8 for Linux does not properly open files with the .url extension. It should immediately open a tab with the URL in the file. In Windows it works properly. Thank you!

here is a solution for you

grep 'URL=' < file.url | sed 's/URL=//g' | xargs firefox

change file.url to the name of your shortcut, I did not come up with this, but found it with a google search, one of the first page results when I searched for open .url file in firefox linux
