Opening Local Files from Firefox

So you have an intranet which has links to files on a share drive using the file: protocol, like file:///G:/Company Policy.doc.  Internet Explorer opens these files fine, but Firefox does nothing.  You could add your intranet to IE Tab Plus if you wanted to, but there should be a way to make Firefox do this right?  No need to switch out browser engines unnecessarily right?  There is:

• mozillaZine - Links to local pages do not work

If you're using my script, add these three lines to firefoxSettings:

var firefoxSettings = new Array(
    "capability.policy.policynames", "localfilelinks",
    "capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "http://intranet",
    "capability.policy.localfilelinks.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess"
    );

Change http://intranet to your own URL.  localfilelinks.sites is a space separated list so you can have more than one if you need them.
