The OS on the Sputnik systems includes the ubuntu-online-tour package.
This bug doesn't occur if ubuntu-online-tour is not install (or if it is
purged before the user sets the default browser back to firefox).
Specifically the bug doesn't occur if /usr/share/applications/ubuntu-
online-tour.desktop is not present. /usr/share/applications/ubuntu-
online-tour doesn't assert any MIME type associations or protocol
handlers, so I suspect the problem is in firefox or GNOME rather than
ubuntu-online-tour itself.
** Also affects: firefox (Ubuntu)

Title:
When Firefox sets itself as default browser, all links open the Ubuntu
tour
Status in Dell Sputnik:
Confirmed
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
To reproduce:
1) Install chromium-browser
2) Launch chromium-browser and set it to the default browser (in preferences)
3) Launch firefox and set it back to the default browser (in
preferences/advanced)
4) Go to the terminal and type "gvfs-open http://dell.com"; (or click on a
link in any external program)
What happens:
The Ubuntu tour opens
What I expect:
Dell's homepage to open
More info:
Looking at ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list you can see that a bunch
of handlers get set to ubuntu-online-tour.desktop instead of firefox.desktop.
This does not affect stock Ubuntu 12.04
