My Windows skills are a bit rusty but there are a couple different things
to try:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic
browse-url-generic-program "C:/path/to/xulrunner.exe"
browse-url-generic-args '("c:\\conkeror\\application.ini"))
Or:
(setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic
browse-url-generic-program "start"
browse-url-generic-args '("c:\\conkeror\\conkeror.lnk"))
Or:
Create a batch file that launches Conkeror.
I would be curious which, if any, of these work.
