Smile Remove .pls association from gxine in Firefox?


I have looked around for a way to do this but can't seem to find it. When I go to somafm.com in Firefox, I want Amarok to be launched to play the streams, not gxine.

Gxine can stay for other things, I just want to remove its association for .pls files in Firefox.

I feel like there must be a text file somewhere that contains the contents of about:plugins for firefox that I should be able to edit the .pls line out of for gxine, but I can't find it.

Using gxine for .pls makes me feel like I am trying to use baseball bats as chopsticks.

Any help is appreciated.

It might be just that simple, but that is not it. (That's the first thing I checked.) The dialogue there gives no option to add new associations, it just lets you modify existing ones, but none of the gxine associations are listed there.

Thanks for the suggestion =]
