In depth
A closer look at CustomURL
The CustomURL application was designed to be a small utility for registering custom URL protocols. You can for example associate the rdp:// protocol with Remote Desktop Client or the ssh:// protocol with Putty or another SSH client. CustomURL allows you to run any EXE file from a html page. This can be very useful for business application that combine a web interface with locally installed applications. This tool uses the .Net 2.0 System.Uri class to parse and extract parts of the URL. No extra validation is done on the extracted URL parts. For security reasons only the host, port and user information is extracted, any query parts of the URL will be ignored.
