I use Thunderbird for my e-mail. Before updating Firefox I could click on an e-mail and the link would open in the browser. Now ir will not.

Chosen solution

Open Windows IE. Go to the settings menu. Have IE declared the default web browser. Do Not turn on the "check if default" option. Close IE

Now open Firefox. Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar. Make Firefox the default browser and turn on Always Check Firefox Default Browser.

This may fix the issue.
