The address wasn’t understood
#1
I keep receiving the following error message when clicking on a magnet link. Any idea what's going on?

The address wasn’t understood

Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (magnet) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.

    You might need to install other software to open this address.


I checked my options and have it set as vuze as my default for magnets (see attached.)

Perhaps Vuze wasn't successful registering itself as the default handler because Firefox doesn't seem to have gotten the memo. You could try again, or check the registry by hand:

It's working now. I did a restart. That seemed to work.
