KDE Platform Version: 4.8.5 (4.8.5)

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed
Let me start from the beganing. I changed the desktop effects setting a little; just changed the desktop switcher from slide to cube. And my computer became slower than a snail. All applications and specially the panel. the KDE KickOff application launcher was too slow to open and close. So I tried to make another panel and remove the previous one. This is when the plasma desktop disappeared for a moment and then reappeared. but almost everything is fine except that my computer is dead slow.
I just installed Kubuntu few days ago. And I don't know much where to get help. I don't want to installed Kubuntu and all the apps from the scratch.. Please do help me with this. It's so annoying.
- Custom settings of the application:
