heh :)

To be honest, I didn't know the answer at first sight, but a look at the code 
did it: you have to change the _global_ Browser in KControl (or Konqueror 
itself), section "File Associations". I think it was under File Manager until 
KDE 3.0. There, go to text/html, press Add, choose Mozilla and move it to the 
top of the list. You can do this with any mime type you want (although I 
can't understand, why one would want that ;).

Good luck,
