thunderbird won't open hyperlinks

Installed thunderbird, firefox (gentoo emerge from source, compiled fine, no problems, both start etc.)

The only thing is, when I click on a hyperlink in thunderbird, it won't open it in firefox, instead nothing happens at all! Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Gasper

Try to set firefox as your default web-browser.
