My guess is something else you installed had made itself the default browser 
for the
OS, then you removed it.  PockeTwit simply tells the OS to launch the link, it 
does
not specify anything about the browser.

I have no idea how the default browser is specified.

I have found the registry entries related to setting the default browser in 
Windows
Mobile and listed them at
