Sorry I removed KDE 2.2-beta1 from my hard disk. Now with 2.1.1 the links 
are shown correctly.

Links like:
Message: http://www.jesus.de/foren/read.php?f=5&i=25437&t=25401&admview=1

were broken like the following (not all of them)
Message: http://www.jesus.de/foren/read.php?f=5&i=25437&t=2540
1&admview=1

It's just an example I couldn't find out any rule. But it seemed as if the 
links preceeded by "Message: " were broken by a newline more often than
those which were not preceeded by anything although the latter were longer 
(in fact I don't remember a link without a word before it having been broken).

Well it is shown correctely here.
There possibly was recently a bug in khtml which caused that.

I've noticed this as well. It just occurs whenever the URL is longer than 72 
characters the URL is broken at 72 characters and only the first 72 chars 
are translared into a clickable link for konqueror.

e.g. 
Materials/Interoperability section -

/objectid-242
