Hey Skip, thanks for the reply.   I got this fixed and wanted to send out an 
email to hopefully help others that might run into this.

On the default install of Mandrake 9.1, the BROWSER environment variable value 
is "kfmclient openProfile webbrowsing".  Adding mozilla to the env did the 
trick.

Again, thanks for the reply.
Dustin
