I just discovered this website:

Whenever I click on any of the links, I get:
Unknown Protocol: apt is not a registered protocol

I can only assume (since I've already deleted it) that it was
registered
in the included version of Firefox. Can someone clue me in as to how to
get this working with Seamonkey?

Seems like a wrong-headed approach, since apt really is not a valid
protocol, and registering it shouldn't fix anything.

All the links I see on that page begin with http, as they should.

So it seems logical to ask how your installation got the idea in its
head to look for apt... Is something substituting "apt" for "http"?


Here is a sample of the code from the source.

<h3>3. Install Media Codecs</h3>
...
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_self" class="arconix-button
arconix-button-medium arconix-button-orange"
href="apt:gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly,gstreamer0.10-plugins-ffmpeg">Click
to Install Third-Party Codecs</a> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div>

Quite right. I withdraw my objection. I overlooked those.


What it apparently wants to do is launch the Ubuntu Software Center to do the install. I did the changes suggested by WaltS in an earlier thread and now it's prompting me for which application it should launch. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to tell it to launch the Software Center.

Chrome was able to figure it out, but I can't seem to see the settings it is using... no way to list "Helper Apps" that I can see in that browser.
