And yes, you can open Fx with a url as an argument. With the comment I made about the ownership and protection, I was thinking about some admin making the Firefox configuration file owned by the root, in the hope that the user couldn't reconfigure the homepage they'd get when clicking on the homepage button. A user could still work around linking the "firefox" command to something else by directly calling up the original. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
