Firefox opens file listing instead of Nautilus opening file listing
When I access a folder via "Places" -> "Home Folder" or "Places" -> "Downloads", Firefox opens and list the contents of the directory.
I have re-installed Nautilus, un-installed Firefox and then going to "Places" -> "Home Folder" or "Places" -> "Downloads" launches Nautilus and I can view the contents normally. Anybody else had this problem with Firefox ? Anybody know how to fix this Firefox problem ?
Running Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 64bit.

Yeah it's happened to me as well. I was thinking about removing Nautilus and making Firefox it my File Manager.

I didn't have your problem. Try right clicking the file and see what is set to open it.

I am unable to right click on the folder to see what else comes up when FireFox is installed. Firefox loads the folder. Removed Firefox for the moment until an answer is forthcoming. Thanks for your reply.
