Description The Johnny Person 2010-10-11 01:32:52 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

in the kde settings it is possible to specify wheat browser is to be used to open all links.  I have specified Opera and ALL programs follow/adhere to this without problem.  Rssnow insists on opening all rss feeds/articles in Konqueror.  I can find no way to change this in the Rssnow program or in the config file.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Just click on any article Rssnow displays to reproduce problem


Expected Results:  
It should have opened the displayed news article in Opera.

I see this is set to fixed but I'm having the same issue (but they open in chromium). Should I file a new bug? I'm on 4.5.3

I'm also running KDE 4.5.3 and I have this issue; RSSNow wants to use Iceweasel but I have the KDE settings set to specify Firefox (with Firefox's full path).  I agree, does this require a new bug or should this one be reopened?
