Can't set a default web browser


Hi everybody, I'm running AntiX (Debian testing and Mepis with IceWM and FluxBox) and I can't change the default web browser (which right now is Dillo). I've checked the config files for Fluxbox and IceWM but I didn't find anything (It could be possible that I missed something).
