There were a couple of bugs with GoToVenue plus Firefox command-line helpers 
can't have switches, see:
  http://bugzilla.mcs.anl.gov/accessgrid/show_bug.cgi?id=1406

try replacing /usr/bin/GoToVenue with this version (which is suitable as a 
firefox helper):
  http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~douglask/GoToVenue
it includes a patch based on the one included with the above bugzilla 
report.

If it works fine, I'll probably add it to the AG CVS.

Cheers,
Doug
