On macbook if open url in firefox get text file contents rather than opening a web site. Have to open url in safari.
If i open a url file with firefox all i get is the notepad like view of the contents of the url file. if i open the same url with safari it opens the web site as it should. I have set firefox as the default browser but still must open url in safari to go to the web site. Even if I manually change the url file to open with firefox it still open the notepad like viewer.

That is a Windows internet shortcut file and Mac doesn't know what to do with it.
