> When I click on links in emails for instance
>>http://www.linux.ie/mailman/listinfo/ilug/>> the address which appears in my Firefox browser is
>>file:///home/sean/.kde/share/apps/kfmexec/tmp/20925.0.ilug>> Needless to say any relative links are directed to my

>> I am using Mandrake 9.2 KDE 3.1.3 Kmail 3.5.3 and Firefox

>> Any Ideas on whats wrong?
Go to Control Center/File Browsing/File Associations.
Click the + in text and select html.
Next "Application Preference Order", click Add.
Select a browser as default and suffix it with " %u". For example /usr/bin/Konqueror %u.
Click OK and move entry to the top of the list.
If %u isn't included KDE tries to download the page which is what you're seeing here.
