So how does Windows explorer determine whether or not an application is able to open files based on a URL?  Inside the registry is a table of registered applications found under the key \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft \Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\.  Any application that is able to open a type of file that is registered with explorer should be in that list.  If the application is able to open a URL should have a special entry under its key name "useURL".  The type of the entry is "string" and its value is "1".  Of course, this should only be present for applications that actually are able to open files over http or https protocols.  Adding this key for firefox made the Open actions for many of the files in my web folder suddenly accessible with a double-click action.
