Firefox 15.0.1 firefox -silent -setDefaultBrowser not working

I installed Firefox 15.0.1 in a machine which already had Firefox set as default browser.

After the upgrade it's no longer the default browser.

I tried the firefox -silent -setDefaultBrowser command (because I need a script to set it without user intervention) but it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

You could try setting that from another browser.
