Although I have beta-tested software on Linux in the past, it was only specific applications, not an actual distribution. :)
I checked the Firefox preferences and even though it has so far, not prompted me to select it as the default browser, the preferences are showing Firefox as the default.
Hi Edwards, have a look at Trinity Control Center -> TDE Components -> Default applications -> Web browser and set whatever is your preference there, regardless of what Firefox tells you.

Hi Michele,
Thunderbird was acting up again earlier, then noticed that Firefox had unbecome the default web browser again, so I went into the above screen and made Firefox the default.
TDE is a lot easier when it comes to things like this, an easy-to-use GUI. To turn off the user list at the login screen and turn on the numlock, instead of manually editing text files, it was two checkboxes away. :)
Last night I had opened Konqueror to find some files. This morning, I clicked a link in Thunderbird, it opened Firefox and it again displayed a window that it wasn't the default browser. I again selected it as the default. This was after I set Firefox as the default in TDE Control Center/TDE Components/Default Applications.
So it appears that once Konqueror is launched for something, the system is making it the default browser, when it should not be and regardless of the TCC setting.
