Yes, this is strange: I have chosen open inset, marked the URL and done
CTRL+C to copy it on the clipboard for using it in Firefox and I got the

I would just move them myself to the directory where you have your .lyx source
file.
Then, open the .lyx file in a text editor, and then use find and replace to
adjust the filename to the new location.

What I like about LyX over MS Word is:
