I suppose this started when I upgraded to KDE 4.9.5, but I just noticed
it today.
In KDE's system settings, I have Firefox set as the default web
browser. It worked fine before now. But now when I click on an
http: or https: URL in some other application, KDE downloads the page to
its local cache, then launches Firefox to open the local file. So my
Firefox is opening a file such as
file:///var/tmp/kdecache-q/krun/8144_0_
I don't think I've changed any settings that should affect this, and I
don't know what to change to fix it.

here.
I fixed it by changing the command in Firefox's .desktop file from
"firefox" to "firefox %u".
