 Hi there,

 I'm using Pidgin 2.7.10 and I have Chrome as my default browser.

 When someone sends me a message containing a link to a Hansoft
 (http://www.hansoft.se/) issue, I click on it, chrome is launched but
 Hansoft is not automatically opened on the corresponding issue. As soon as
 I swap to Firefox it works fine.

 The Pidgin messages appear as links and when I click "Copy Link Location"
 the format is something like: hansoft://servername/Task/115142

 I can copy hansoft://servername/Task/115142 into my Chrome address bar,
 hit return and brings up Hansoft as expected.

 I'm trying to work out of this is a Pidgin or Chrome issue. Is there any
 kind of logging in Pidgin that I can enable to see what it's doing with
 the link when I click on it. It's weird how it works for Firefox but not
 Chrome.

 Any help would be much appreciated.

 Thanks in advance.
 Tom.
