Description Blanked 2006-11-07 06:51:45 UTC
Version:           3.5.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Sometimes people ask for a link to a website, so I'll search google for the link. I often find myself copying URLs from the addressbar, closing konqueror and then pasting the link to the people after (since I didn't need konqueror anymore).
Another time is when I am uploading images and then close the browser and paste images afterwards.

However, as soon as I close the browser it seems a different URL is placed into my clipboard.

To reproduce:
Go to http://imageshack.us
Upload an image
Copy the link (I use direct link)
Close the browser [this step alters link]
Try pasting the link -- if you closed the browser it will be http://load.imageshack.us . If you didn't close the browser, it will be the correct direct link to the image.

I am unsure how http://load.imageshack.us makes its way into the clipboard when I close the window. Although, because of this, I have been forced to either: paste before closing window, search history for http://img.* or look in Klipper history.

Note: I haven't found anyone else that this reproduces for. This only happens in konqueror.
