Have you tried sending a shell command?
Here is the full Windows code that used to work:
else if (the platform) is "Win32" then
set the hideConsoleWindows to true
put empty into theTitle
if "NT" is in the systemVersion then
set the shellCommand to "cmd.exe"
put quote & quote into theTitle
end if
get shell("start" && theTitle && quote & tURL & quote)
if the result is empty then
put empty into tUrl
exit goUrl # success
else # failed, try again
local intApp
local EXE_off
put
queryRegistry("hkey_local_machine\software\classes\http\shell\open\command\")
into intApp
if char 1 of intApp is quote then clear char 1 of intApp #
strip leading quote
put offset("EXE",intApp) into EXE_off
put char 1 to (EXE_off+2) of intApp into intApp
launch tURL with intApp
if the result is empty then
put empty into tUrl
exit goUrl # success
else # failed, try again
put word 1 to -2 of
queryRegistry("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\command\")
into tBrowserPath
launch (tBrowserPath && tURL)
if the result is empty then
put empty into tUrl
exit goUrl # success
end if
end if
end if
