[OCLUG-Tech] Connecting Thunderbird and Firefox in Kubuntu 9.4

[Charles MacDonald <cmacd [ at ] zeusprune [ dot ] ca>]

Another unrealted problem with my new computer.  When I click on a URL 
in thunderbird mail, it does not open a web browser window.  I know it 
is suposed to work, but I cannot find anyplace where the browser to use 
can be set, or indeed any setting about opening URL's

I did find the reverse, telling Firefox to send a link, it made me find 
the thunderbird binary in /usr and now it seems to be able to perform a 
"mail this page" request.

As you can imagine not being able to click on a URL makes notifications 
of new posts on web groups uncomfortable.
