Recently all links from external programs began opening my homepage rather than the target URI. This only happens when Firefox is my default browser, not when other browsers are set to be the default browser. I see this most often with links in Thunderbird e-mail messages, but I also duplicated the problem by inserting a link into a LibreOffice Writer document and clicking on it.

Sounds like a problem with the default browser where the command is missing the %U parameter that causes the link not to be send to Firefox.
