Are you using MSN Messenger, or one of the alternatives such as pidgin or kopete?

I am not familiar with MSN itself, but my guess would be you want something like
mozilla $url (note space between mozilla and $url)
or
firefox $url (this is in case you happen to be using MSN Messenger on Linux)
or possibly even
mozilla %s

Hope this helps

Thanks very much Allen. I typed in firefox instead of mozilla into my preferences and it now works O.K.
Problem solved and many thanks.
