None of this is ever stored. This isn't a profile handler, to store all
the data for the user. It's a URL handler, to make it so the user can
choose to store their data in an easier format and/or just type in a
simple URL to open a connection. It locates MySQL Query Browser,
disassembles the URL into its component parts, and starts QB with the
proper arguments to open a connection to the database.
