google chrome and external link (xdg-open)

(please forgive my bad English, I'm Italian)

Hi guys, I'm writing from Arch Vanilla, Kernel Linux-zen, Plasma 5 DE
everything works fine except for google chrome and external link. for example, if I want to add some new server to amule, or download a file with ktorrent, I click the the link and a window appears with "open xdg-open?" if I click yes another chrome tab opens and nothing appened.
apparently it's impossible to open the right app requested by the link.
I tried to modify the .desktop file of amule and ktorrent without success.

I tried to install firefox and everything works. it seems a chrome problem but I can't find a solution.

could you help me please?

thank you
