How do I UNSET Firefox as the default browser?

When asked I set Firefox as the default browser. I would like to UNset this setting, but that option does not seem to be in the preferences. Where is that option hiding?

You do that by setting another browser as the default browser and make sure that Firefox doesn't ask.

"System Defaults": "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup"

Thanks! I had looked in Firefox preferences and in system preferences, but when I finally looked in Safari preferences I found where to set that one as default. Unfortunately Firefox can't handle SilverLight.
