Description Ondřej Michálek 2007-02-26 01:26:44 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

I have set my default app for web browsing to kfmclient from Mozilla FF.
When I tried to open *.desktop link to a random web address inside of Konqueror, the application could not open it but started a vicious circle -- The kdeinit parent process began launching one kfmclient instance after another and the small Konqueror icon by my cursor suddenly started dribbling very fast.
I closed the kdeinit parent in Ksysguard to stop the problem and launched kdeinit again, but when I try to open a .desktop link by left click, middle click or by dragging it to an empty space in tabbar, the situation repeats.

the same happens when clicking a weblink in about box of a kde app.
