Thanks Zeljko for the advice on the file associations tip to fix konqueror to
open url links. It works great. I've used menudrake however I've never
touched the /configuration/kde directory. I have used the reload user config
or reload system config under the file button option at the top often.
Strange thing, even though kcontrol is empty again (for the umpteenth time) I
still have access to all of it's menu entries through /panel/kmenu
button/Configuration/KDE/.
