Setting default browser in Xubuntu


I've set the default browser in Xubuntu to be Flock but Thunderbird is still calling up Firefox.

Any idea how to change it when Thunderbird processes urls?

I believe you need to edit configuration setting "network.protocol-handler.app.http".

An example change is discussed here:
