Help needed: firefox no more std application for a WEB URL

[Joachim Backes]

Hi,

I'm using F9 together with gnome as std desktop. I have some WEB links 
on my gnome desktop, and since all fedora generations, firefox is 
started if I click on an icon on my desktop pointing to some website.

But since a few days, clicking on a web icon starts konqueror and no 
more firefox. How to re-switch to firefox?

There is no "open with" dialog when clicking with the right mouse on 
such an icon.

All help is appreciated.

Regards

[Claude Jones]

open a terminal (command line) and enter the following command:
gnome-default-applications-properties
