My "Home" is a GIF file on my C: drive, but the Home button will not display the file anymore.

I am now on Firefox 6.0.2. Prior to this upgrade when I clicked the Home button I would see a GIF file from my hard drive displayed. This is how it was coded in my Options: file:///C|/$USER/OTHER/BITMAPS/THINK.GIF This file is also a Bookmark of mine and clicking that entry in the Bookmark bar works perfectly fine.

But now in 6.0.2 when I click Home it opens a new tab and then I get an error message saying: 

   Server not found.
   Firefox can't find the server at www.$user.com.

and in the address bar it says: http://www.$user.com/OTHER/BITMAPS/THINK.GIF

So my question is, why is it changing the "file:" specification to an invalid "http:" specification?

FWIW shouldn't that begin with file:///c:/

Thank you for the clue which solved the problem! I changed the "C|" to "C:" and it now works. But I am still mystified about what changed because my Home page has been set to file:///C|/$USER/OTHER/BITMAPS/THINK.GIF since my Netscape days, and like I said, it worked fine with the previous versions of Firefox, it only broke when I went to V6.0.2. The other mysterious thing is that my bookmark with the "|" instead of the ":" still works just fine, it only was broken with Home button, nowhere else. But now it works so I'm happy, thanks again.
