It lists Mozilla as a choice but my new install of Mozilla is I guess in a different place. How can I point this web-url "thingy" to my new mozilla install?

The other browsers are listed also, so this must be the place. How do I change it to read Mozilla (which may now be in a new or different location than usual.)

	Tried a few suggestions, soloution not yet found, except to use Konqueror which does work in the web-url dialog box. Naaah,, I want my Mozilla!(-;
$	 How does Sylpheed know where to find Mozilla?  *Is there a config file?* Or can I type the path directly in the dialog box?
