We are using a standard Qt call to open a url, namely
QDesktopServices::openUrl, see
http://doc.qt.digia.com/stable/qdesktopservices.html#openUrl

In earlier versions of J, a browser application was explicitly set in the
config. Now we are just using the usual OS facilities.

Is it possible that Tom's machine is set up to not open urls by default?
