Version:           latest git snapshot (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

If I try to browse to the BBC news main page or most pages within the site, they do not load at all.
The exception to this is pages within the sport area (which has not yet undergone the BBC's latest layout updates).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Two way to do it: 
1) Go directly to http://news.bbc.co.uk either from a bookmark or by typing the URL into the location window
or:
2) Go to the BBC Sport page http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport and click on the "News" link.

Actual Results:  
The spinner indicates loading for a second or so then disappears, the previously displayed page remains displayed.

Expected Results:  
The BBC news main page should be displayed.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-25-generic
Compiler: cc

KDE is version 4.5.1 not 4.5.0 but that's not listed in the menu.
