xfbrowser4 is not respecting the selcted webbrowser in preffered applications.
exo-open --launch WebBrowser may be used instead.

You could also simply use exo-open directly instead.
Comment 2 Jannis Pohlmann editbugs 2007-11-23 21:24:22 CET 
This bug has to be filed against xfce-utils. xfbrowser4 is not part of libxfce4menu.
Comment 3 Yves-Alexis Perez editbugs 2008-06-23 09:41:37 CEST 
xfbrowser4 now first tries exo-open, so I guess this bug can be closed.
