Application: knotify4 (4.14.9)
KDE Platform Version: 4.14.9
Qt Version: 4.8.6
Operating System: Linux 3.16.7-35-desktop x86_64
Distribution: "openSUSE 13.2 (Harlequin) (x86_64)"

-- Information about the crash:
but KDE keeps popping out saying programme has been shot down and it happens in many cases, not just trying to download stuff

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KNotify (knotify4), signal: Segmentation fault
Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
