[11.10]-Default Web Browser=Firefox, But Email Opens Chrome???

Hi,

Running kubuntu 11.10 64Bit.

I use Mozilla Thunderbird v11 for email.
When I click on a URL in Thunderbird, it opens in Google Chrome?
I checked the default web browser in settings and it is set to Firefox.

I posted about this in Mozilla Thunderbird forums
and I was told its an Operating System problem
as Thunderbird queries the OS for default web browser.

The default web browser IS set to Firefox.

How do I fix this problem?
Thanks!

Jesse
