What I have been able to determine, so far:
If Konqueror or another web browser is left alone:
And Firefox is *not* the default browser, the box in Preferences to
always check if it's the default is *not* checked, both Firefox and
Thunderbird, so far, have behaved as expected. With the box unchecked,
Firefox obviously does not prompt for it to become the default.
Once Konqueror or another web browser is launched:
Firefox, when launched afterwards, will again prompt to become the
default and once again, Thunderbird will create 'Blogs & News Feeds' and
not open links when selected.
So you'll have to check 2 things:
1) reboot, launch firefox, close it, lauch any other browser, close it. reboot, launch firefox: does the said popup occur?
2a) If not: what changed in the local users environment variablen?
2b) if yes: what files were changed in the local users environment?

When I powered the system on this morning, the Firefox preferences
indicated it *was* the default browser, with the box to check for
default, unchecked. Last night, it was showing it was *not* the default.
In light of this, upon performing the steps in Q1:
1. No
2A. Unknown
Something appears to be changing the default browser status upon
shutdown/reboot.
