Description Ajay 2009-06-28 11:22:31 UTC

Version:           2.2.4 (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4), Arch Linux)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-ARCH

Kget displays "malformed url" error every time a non-url is copied to clipboard when monitoring is enabled. Steps to reproduce

# Enable Kget clipboard monitoring in Setting > Configure Kget > Advanced > Integration > "Monitor clipboard for files to download"

# Go to any application (tested with Konqueror, Opera, open-office etc) and copy some text,

# Note Kget almost immediately display a "Malformed URL: Protocol missing" error.

What should actually happen - If a non-URL is copied to clipboard, Kget should parse it and silently ignore, if the copied content is unrelated.

BUG:198139
Copied text needs to have a protocoll and a path before it tries to download the "url".
