Inappropriate?We use the standard way of opening URL's on OS X. Is Wakoopa the only application on your system that experiences this issue?

Inappropriate?
All other browser requests open up the correct browser but Wakoopa (for me) seems to attempt to open a new copy of firefox when it calls home (?) -
Inappropriate?so i purposely delete firefox apps off because I'm using minefield anyway and tracker even try to open my firefox which in my Parallels Desktop
WTF?

Inappropriate?This looks like a (pretty annoying) bug.
It happens when the Wakoopa tracker wants to get the URL of Minefield to identify the web application inside Minefield. Because Minefield and Firefox are pretty much alike, the tracker asks the process "Firefox" for its URL. Because Firefox isn't running, it gets started (even the Parallels version, if the Mac one isn't available).
I've added this to our list and it will most likely be fixed in the next release (which will be soon). Thanks for reporting!
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Cool, now I see where the problem was coming from: I renamed firefox versiosn to firefox-2.app and firefox-3.app, firefox-3.1.app and so on to easily identify which version I'm using for testing. Guess what, the version under parallels is still just named "Firefox.exe". Annoying indeed.
When will the fixed version be released? For now I just stopped tracking web apps...
