It was defined as custom as firefox-3.0. I changed this with the drop down
menu and now everything works again. If I try to start firefox-3.0 from the
commandline it says that
kim@bnc6 ~ $firefox-3.0
exec: 118: /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.3/firefox-3.0: not found
Missing symlink perhaps?

that seems to be a firefox issue and not a gnome-control-center one
