We use qt's preferences system, this describes where the file should be:

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qsettings.html#locations-where-application-settings-are-stored

I don't know of any workbench preferences that would hang the system.  That
warning may not need to be severe, as it should tell the calling code that
the string is invalid, and not use it.

If you are using KDE, there is an issue in that we don't include QT's dbus
library, but KDE's styling uses it, which will grab the system version.  If
the system QT version doesn't match the libraries we bundled in the
release, this will cause problems.  You can use "-style Cleanlooks" (or any
other style except GTK+) to work around this problem.
