This happens every time without failure. Other apps seem to operate normally. I assume it is a KDE problem. However, in the KDE File Associations, libreoffice is not showing anywhere in html or text as a relevant application to open such files with. So, I'm assuming some other setting is pulling it in. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I don't know the process for this in KDE. Already checked those. Nothing suspicious in there. Sometimes loffice even starts when I click on my (empty) desktop, in the url bar of firefox or in some empty area of an application, where no preferred application would be started. Happens about once a week and I click a lot, so I don't care too much :) Best, Michael

Sounds like you've got to re-select your preferred application handlers. I don't know the process for this in KDE. -- :wq

[gentoo-user] Clicking on URLs in kmail-1.13.7 launches libreoffice
Over the last couple of weeks I noticed that when I click on a URL in an email I get libreoffice launching a few seconds after Konqueror has opened up the URL. I think this started happening after the recent update of KDE to 4.7.4 and after the initial "what the ... " it is now becoming annoying. Have you noticed anything similar? Any ideas how I could fix this? -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
