2nd vote for More Internet
Authored by: saint.duo on Jul 17, '03 11:05:38AM

I've been using the pref pane more internet to do this for quite some time. One problem with the system is that if an application does not either have a creator code, or does not register with launch services, you cannot assign it as a helper for a URL (so no shell scripts and such).

If you remove the protocol and then add it again the Finder starts out as the default helper app.

From the Vince website:
n.b. Vince has been superceeded by More Internet PrefPane

Not sure why rob prefers Vince over More Internet. I think More Internet is the better solution.
