you can also simply set it in a startup script.

to take advantage of mozilla's open() call, you can simply write a
wrapper. if you need the plugins to be seen, set up the MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH
variable inside that wrapper..

a quick example of the wrapper script:

#!/bin/sh

FIREBIRD_DIR="/usr/X11R6/lib/firebird/bin"
FIREBIRD_EXEC="MozillaFirebird"

cd $FIREBIRD_DIR        || exit 1

./$FIREBIRD_EXEC -remote "ping()" &&
./$FIREBIRD_EXEC -remote "openURL($@, new-tab)" && exit 0

exec ./$FIREBIRD_EXEC "$@"
