I'm trying to get magnet links to work in Firefox using the mozex extension, but I can't even get magnet links to work at all. I'm using LimeWire 3.8.10 on a Fedora Core 1 box. Are magnet links working for other people?

[charles@localhost LimeWire]$ ./runLime.sh magnet:?xt=urn:sha1:K5WUDXIE3YMOYZ5ZCS3WJ5UICQU75O OO&dn=pink_theme.lwtp&xs=http://64.61.25.138:6346/uri-res/N2R?urn:sha1:K5WUDXIE3YMOYZ5ZCS3WJ5UICQU75OOO
