about:config is part of the mozilla.org family's DNA, not well-known by
average users, but present in most sufficiently bloated products they

May I recommend Azureus as a better bittorrent client? Whereas the
standard bittorrent has a separate instance per torrent joined,

Nevermind it's reading it... I just don't seem to understand the mailcap
conventions and pitfalls... It can't seem to deal with single quotes or
commands with arguments... Or deals with them in some way I don't understand
