I don't use urlview (I use extract_url.pl, which is similar), but it
looks like urlview may be stripping the backslashes. I wonder if you
can fix it like this:
COMMAND firefox -remote 'openURL('%s',new-tab)'
If that doesn't fix it, you could even try something stupid like
creating a shell script (let's say openfirefox.sh) that looks like
this:
#!/bin/sh
firefox -remote 'openURL('"$1"',new-tab)'
...and then use this in your .urlview file:
COMMAND openfirefox.sh %s
