Odd Behaviour

Frist Psot. Be gentle...

I'm writing an AppleScript to be a URL handler[1] in AppleScript studio and have noticed really odd behaviour. When I select my Applescript as the helper app in IE, it selected it fine. As soon as I looked at it funny, it switched to being "Mimic PC Monitor" from Colorsync's scripts. This made me curse MS repeatedly so I downloaded "More Internet Preferences" and installed that to select my script as a protocol handler. It too switched to "Mimic PC Monitor". Next up was Vince, the stand-alone preferences editor. It too chose "Mimic PC Monitor" instead of my script.

So, as a last resort to test my lovely little script, I decided I would edit "Mimic PC Monitor" and just be done with it. From then on, it uses "Update Servers" no matter what Applescript I choose. Is MacOS X choosing the lowest dated AppleScript instead of the one I want?

Can anyone shed some light on this before I give up on my Applescripted ML-Donkey front-end project as worthless?

I'm running MacOS X 10.2.1 on a G4-400 AGP with the latest dev tools.
