Launchy...trying to open everything in firefox?

I liked using gnome-do but it required mono and a whole bunch of other libraries that made it alone take 90Mb to have installed

I recently moved over from gnome to Lxde and so far am liking the change, and found that launchy is great, much more configurable and everything it seems, but when I type in avid and it suggests avidemux, I hit enter and then firefox pops up asking me what I want to do with the file avidemux2_gtk.bin

So instead of running the files..its opening them in firefox?

Has anyone had this problem before..? I was thinking it might have something to do with mime-types or something..

Awesome thanks that fixed everything, I found a patch on that page, recompile launchy with the patch and bam..I can actually use it now!

You think they would release a new version of launchy to fix this ASAP..kinda a big problem...w/e I'm happy!
