After running kde on 3.9 I found the following error messages in

Why would kio access files in /etc?

Why do you continue to ask questions like this?  What do you think
kio is used for? Does your firewall block Google, or are you just lazy?

Thanks for the suggestion. I had not thought of trying google for the answer to this question. I just now googled for "kio /etc" and got 413,000 hits. I
assume you either do not know, or choose not to post, the answer to my
question. But thanks anyways for the help which you did provide.

The question is, if I am not doing anything with those files, then why is
kio accessing them?

I assumed that you would be bright enough to use Google to understand the purpose of kio (virtual file system library). I was mistaken in giving you the benefit of the doubt. Now that you know what kio is for, does it start to make sense why it would access files in /etc that pertain to file sharing?
