I think that you need to add something like this to registry:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\makecall\@ = URL: makecall Protocol HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\makecall\URL Protocol = "" HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\makecall\DefaultIcon\@ = C:\YourIcon.ico HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\makecall\shell\@ = open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\makecall\shell\open\command\@ = "C:\YourApp.exe" "%1"
i'm only pointer to myself
