    Nautilus ftp weirdness

    Hello friends. I need some help with the following:

    I have bookmarks in my "Places" menu to ftp servers. Since upgrading to 11.04 clicking such a bookmark starts up Firefox and points it to the ftp server, instead of using Nautilus. I checked in "preferred applications" but there is nothing I can seem to do there.

    Of course, I can just start Nautilus and I'll have my bookmarks in the left hand panel. When I do any file copying from or to the server, it will do that operation and display a progress bar (as usual). However, the progress bar will remain on the screen and the Nautilus window will display the "Computer" directory.

    I'd really appreciate if you could help me fix this.

    Thank, Tx

    It's been reported as a bug. If you open Nautilus and select your FTP sites you saved as Bookmarks they will open correctly as they always have.
