Is it possible to get KDE 3 to accept another default browser?

I want to set Iceweasel as my default browser in KDE3 - but no matter what I try, it simply gets ignored. Is Konqueror hardcoded in? I have gone in to Control Center, changed the default browser in Component Chooser, which has no effect that I can tell. I have been through all MIME types in the File Associations and removed references to Konqueror - no effect. Do I have to get the source for KDE and remove a hardcoded reference somewhere? It seems bizarre that a thing like this can't simply be changed easily; it is a simple thing to do in That Other Desktop Environment, as far as I remember.
