Hi!
Thanks for your feedback. The applet launches the system default browser using 'xdg-open' which on Gnome invokes the system default browser. On KDE this is generally set to Konqurer.
It sounds like it's doing what it's supposed to. You should be able to change the desktop settings for KDE to alter the system default browser. I don't recall where that is off hand, and don't have any KDE desktops readily available to refer to.
Please note that we don't have any KDE-specific support handling coded for the current released client.
