This is probably a transitional issue.  In my case the problem happened
with dist-upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy, then a week or so later the dist-
upgrade of Firefox 2 to Firefox 3b3 appeared and I did that.  After that
Firefox 2 was no longer on the system, so it was not a question of
selecting the defaults, it was the fact that the dist-upgrade set my
Preferred Applications setting for Web Browser to 'Custom', pointing to
a file that did not exist.  Swapping back to Firefox as the preferred
browser solved my problem.  I may not be able to reproduce the sequence
since there have been hundreds of updates since my upgrade from Gutsy to
Hardy.
