In KDE go into Control Panel/KDE Components/File Associations/text/html and select Seamonkey and place it at the top of your list. Directly beneath it your second choice, beneath that your third choice...... etc., etc..

On my desktop, toolbar, there's a "Desktop" menu which includes:
  Preferences
    ...
    Preferred Applications

From the name of "Preferred Applications" I assumed that's what
I could use to specify the default web browser. In 'Preferred Applications' there was a 'Internet' tab which had an entry
from 'Web Browser' and 'Mail Reader'. The 'Web Browser'
entry had 'iceweasel'.  However, when, in 'icedove' I clicked
on a url, the epiphany browser was used.  Why wasn't the
'Preferred Applications'.'Web Browser' application used instead?
