Clicking on a SLURL Doesn't Activate the Viewer
For Windows users running Internet Explorer, Firefox or Chrome
We have now have a software that makes it very easy to adjust your SLURL settings, in order to open any viewer you have installed.
FireFox
Download and install the regular SL viewer - but don't run it.
OR
Try this if the above does not work:

OR
In Firefox, goto Tools → Options → Applications Tab and scroll to Secondlife. Look to see if Firestorm (or Phoenix) is listed, if not, select “other”, then browse your hard drive to find the Firestorm.exe (or Phoenixviewer.exe), click on it, select Open, then click Ok.
Internet Explorer and Chrome
Download and install the regular SL viewer - but don't run it.
Work Around
There is an alternative to clicking a link in a browser to have it pass control to the viewer. Some actually find this work around to be faster and use it normally:
- right click the SLURL link in your web browser and copy to clipboard
- in the viewer, paste the link into your local chat and hit Enter.
- open local chat history
- click the link shown there; you will be shown the location info with the option to teleport direct to it.
