We ended up having the shortcut have the url we were aiming at as a parameter.
Other solutions include always kicking off the AIR app from a web page (and passing the url as a parameter)
InvokeEvent is what you'll be interested for these things, along with the Flex API with dealing with AIR files.

Ok. I'm not sure the web page option will work for my app. For the shortcut, I think I understand how to pass parameters to the app, but I'm not sure how to get the client's local hostname in the first place to pass to it.
It seems like a) since this is pretty useful information and b) since every modern OS has standard calls to get the hostname, this should be really easy to implement and make availabe in AIR. Can anyone from Adobe comment?
