I don't use urlview (I use extract_url.pl, which is similar), but it 
looks like urlview may be stripping the backslashes. I wonder if you 
can fix it like this:

     COMMAND firefox -remote 'openURL('%s',new-tab)'

If that doesn't fix it, you could even try something stupid like 
creating a shell script (let's say openfirefox.sh) that looks like 
this:

     #!/bin/sh
     firefox -remote 'openURL('"$1"',new-tab)'

...and then use this in your .urlview file:

     COMMAND openfirefox.sh %s
