Hello Richard,

First, let me apologize to you for not mentioning in my original post
that after I moved my default browser from iceweasel to firefox-esr, and
deleted from my Wheezy computer iceweasel, I made both the changes
you mentioned in your first post to me.  If I had done so you would not
have been put to the trouble of explaining them to me.

Running the command in your second post as my user, "kwriteconfig
- --file kdeglobals --group General --key 'BrowserApplication'
'!firefox-esr'" -- all on one line of course without the double quotes
- -- seemed to be accepted by the computer.  Since I too do not know the
dcop signal to reload the config, I simply rebooted the computer.  I
found that it did work.  Thank you for your providing me with that
solution.

Between the time of my original post and of your answers I thought of
another solution, simply create in /usr/bin the following link "ln -s
firefox-esr iceweasel".  That solution also worked; but your solution
is better; so I reverted to it once I knew it would work -- although
with an incomplete understanding of how or why!

Regards, Ken Heard
