I've installed the extension. I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.8 so I took the
precaution of installing the locallinks add on too. The
<file>//FileStore/documents</file> syntax renders the link correctly. It
is green and if you right click and copy link and paste it to chrome,
Firefox opens file://///FileStore/documents. If I copy and paste this
part of the source into a test HTM page:-
<ul><li> To Add domains:-
<ul><li> See the public policy statement to send to end users at <a
style="color: green;"
href="file://///FileStore/documents">\\FileStore\documents</a>
Firefox opens the link fine. However on the Wiki page itself, nothing
happens, the cursor changes but clicking produces no result at all.
Anyone any ideas?

It works for me.
