exe -nohome http://gmail.com
or, for Mozilla Firefox, type:
c:\program files\firefox\firefox.exe http://gmail.com
or, for Mozilla SeaMonkey, type:
c:\program files\mozilla\mozilla.exe -url http://gmail.com
(Note the -nohome and -url parameters for Internet Explorer and Sea-
Monkey, respectively, and the fact that Firefox doesn??™t need one.)

6. You??™re not done yet; to set up your new Registry entry to respond correctly
to mailto: links you click in web pages, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_
MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Gmail\Protocols\mailto\shell\open\
command, and double-click the (Default) value to the right.
Just like the command key you set in step 5, type the path of the application
or the path of your browser plus the web site address. But this time,
also include the %1 parameter so that Windows can pass the email
address you clicked to your email program. You??™ll need to check the
documentation for your program or web site for the correct commandline
syntax, but for programs it should look something like this:
c:\Program Files\Eudora\Eudora.exe /m %1
or for a web site (like GMail), type:
iexplore.exe -nohome
https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&tearoff=1&fs=1&to=%1
Naturally, substitute your favorite browser for IE in this example, but
note that the only difference between this and the syntax in the previous
step is the URL to use, which now includes &to=%1, among other
things.
