How can I open links on a page loaded with Firefox in my default browser (Mac Safari) instead of Firefox?

I don't want Firefox to be my default browser, but I do want to use it for certain things. When I do use it, if there's a link on a web page, it doesn't respect my default browser selection which is Safari (Mac). It always opens the link in Firefox. This makes me not want to use it at all. Can I fix this?

Thanks ideato.. I had searched add ons and didn't come up with any that were Mac compatible. I don't know how I missed that one. It does just what I need it to.

Thanks again!!
