Several people wanted to have ThunderBrowse as their default browser. This addon allows ThunderBrowse to take urls from the command line. You still need to modify some registry values to make ThunderBrowse the default browser, but this is the first step.

How to use

The format to pass urls to ThunderBrowse is:

Thunderbird.exe -tbrowse URL

Where URL is the url to browse to.

What it does

If a Thunderbird window is open, a new ThunderBrowse tab will be created via this method. If no Thunderbird window is open, a ThunderBrowse window will be created.

The addon should support all applications that ThunderBrowse supports (Thunderbird, Postbox, Spicebird).

As with pretty much all other projects, you can’t redistribute this. You can link to this category for updates.

I don’t get anything unlimited (so no overselling) but I get the peace of mind that they won’t shut down anything because it’s too popular (unlike my other host). Plus the service is really fast for me. Did you see how fast tabs switch on the homepage? I remember when it used to take forever just for the request to go through.

Most of the site should be running just fine but let me know if you encounter any hiccups via the comments for this post.
