Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This problem is similar to others mentioned, but this only affects wine with 
firefox. I'm posting it in both forums because who knows which is the problem?  
If I try to open a file from the Internet to use a specific wine program 
Firefox doesn't recognize the extension. This has happened with STEAM and the 
(steam) extension. http://cdn.steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi  It 
also used to happens with curseui and the psyn: prefix. 
http://wow.curse.com/client/ I'd assume it happens with all program 
associations in wine. I'm also posting this under wine errors.
1) I'm using Ubuntu Irritating Ibex 8.10  2a) Firefox 
3.0.4+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1 
2b)  1.1.8~winehq0~ubuntu~8.10-0ubuntu1         3)I'm expecting to open a file 
from a site especially designed for the program I'm using and have the program 
open it. Programs I've used in wine include Curseui and Steam <see above>
4) got an error message  "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, 
because the protocol (steam) isn't associated with any program."
