Comment 2 for bug 712240

Hello, thanks for stepping in.

I can't verify because the problem has gotten only worse. FF no longer understands the protocol at all, even though libpurple-bin is installed and "gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/ymsgr/command" returns purple-url-handler "%s". Nonetheless, Firefox complains that "The address wasn't understood. Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (ymsgr) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context."
