I think it has do do with FireFox and TBird being gtk apps while KDE apps are qt. Anyway all is back the way I want it...so maybe you need to try something similar.
Bingo! I logged off KDE and in to Gnome. Fired up Firefox and went to: Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General/System Defaults and there I could click the button to check and see if Firefox was the default browser. It replied that Firefox was not the default and did I want to change that, to which I assented.
In retrospect, I probably could have just gone into the Firefox preferences and changed Firefox to the default browser while logged into KDE
Thunderbird weblinks now open Firefox, or a new tab in Firefox if it's already running. I still don't understand how Chrome became the default browser...
