Hi,

What is your redirection URL i.e the URL that you have enforced for thin direction while capturing FireFox?

hello kmgp

the url is *smart.internal.local (i changed to smart.internal.local, because i can't put the true url)

http://www.alphasmart.internal.local/toto

http://betasmart.internal.local/tata

https://gammasmart.internal.local/

http://www.etasmart.internal.local/index.aspx?kljcglidfwhgqhgbpq

the idea is to redirect all *smart.internal.local.

curiously, if vFF is already started the opening of the redirected urls work fine (passing via a new tab)

maybe it's a specific setting in FF(locking startup of FF to only homepage...), i'm looking on the web, but without result.

Thanks
