getting this error when i try to download the client....any help would be greatly appreciated...says it is not correct

I'm having trouble getting firefox to accept pysn links as going to curses.exe I keep getting an error message when I try to install with curse. I'm on an amd64 using Ubuntu.

Which version of Firefox are you using?

This is the error I'm getting that won't let me use the client to download and install addons

Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (psyn) isn't associated with any program

It seems this problem is extremely widespread, and for several weeks at least, so I'm surprised it hasn't yet been addressed.

on my Linux system, curse.exe runs in wine, as it almost certainly does on any other Ubuntu (Linux) system. On a windows PC firefox can pass the psyn:// back to windows, which looks up the registry and triggers curse.exe

Curse has no doubt correctly altered the registry settings for Wine, but the Linux system in general doesn't use those; UNLESS you're running the windows version of firefox in wine on linux, but that would be a bit weird, so you probably aren't.

I found instructions here:

Which I CHANGED to make this:
gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/psyn/command ".wine/drive_c/Program Files/Curse/CurseClient.exe %s"

then

gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/psyn/needs_terminal false -t bool

then

conftool-2 -t bool -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/psyn/enabled true

Now I don't use gnome at all, but after entering these, (no ffox restart needed) I get a dialog box from ffox when I click the link, so this certainly seems to work.

BUT I can't get the curse client to work properly anyhow; passing the URL does nothing, and right-click --> install new package does nothing as well.

So CurseClient fails on Linux, AFAICT. I'll try the new version.

ive tried many forums trying to find out one thing that curse wont adress...how do u add chacactors to ur accont on curse for the game world of warcraft.ive tried going on the package subscibibtion and it makes me evern more confesed

it doesnt work for me on firefox (auto-install) so i just use my internet explorer.

OMG WHY CAN"T I FIXED THIS PROBLEM

I just use the new installer. I don't try to mess with the web page at all. However the installer has failed to load after the first attempt. So I'm told that's a sound issue. Hopefully I can fix it.

OMG i can´t instaler anddos to wow

As stated previously in this thread, for the client to install addons via the web - the user's web browser and os must know how to invoke the curse client. Usually this i s straightforward and done when the client installer is run. However in certain configurations, there appears to be the potential for problems.

If users are experiencing a problem with the psyn mapping, please state your operating system and browser or any unusual conditions that could be causing it.

OS: Windows 7

Browser: Firefox 3.5.2

Errror String: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (psyn) isn't associated with any program.

Assume Windows 7 is the same as Vista for this...
