*EDIT2*
I actually figured the whole thing out this time. I installed gentoo on a new laptop I bought recently, and deluge would try to open links to visit websites for search. I knew it was entirely separate from KDE because on this laptop I didn't need Ktorrent so I didn't need KDE at all. I did a little searching and found the BROWSER environment variable on a gentoo doc page. I set $BROWSER to /usr/bin/firefox and that fixed it for good. So anybody who has default browser problems set default browser in gnome/kde first, then make sure $BROWSER is set as well (some apps depend on it). Hope that helps someone else..
| Code: | | $ echo "export BROWSER=\"/usr/bin/firefox\"" >> ~/.bash_profile |
^^^^ that should do it..
*EDIT*
I went into kcontrol and changed the default browser to firefox and that fixed it. So, now my question is.. Deluge is a KDE app? Why does it matter what settings KDE has for deluge?

Hey guys,
I just started using deluge the other day (trying to find a non-KDE that has the same features as KTorrent). So far it's working pretty nicely. For some reason, when I type in a search, it opens Konqueror. I use gnome so I'm not really sure why it would do that.. Anyone know how to change the default browser it tries to use for searching? Thank you in advance.
