 checking on the web revealed that lots of people were having the same
 problem.
 
 I uninstall all reference to it which removed sooo much, but it was
 still running. Eventually I did a search in my home directory to see
 what was configuring it so, in $HOME/.config there was mention of it in
 Trolltech.conf,
 
 removing this, then killing the processes stopped nepomukserver from
 respawning.
 
 Now I need to find out what damage I have done.

I'm glad someone else has noticed this.
I am running out of disk space in my home partition thanks to the  terrible  
trio - akonadi, strngi  nepomuk.
When I first came across these I thought - eh! viruses!
You are right, they absolutely slug my system (FC12) and to cap it all, when 
trying to figure out where all my disk space has gone I find :
~/.kde/share/apps consumes 6638984 blocks!
with ~/.kde/share/apps/nepomuk/repository/main/data/virtuosobackend 
containing:
816 soprano-virtuoso.cpt-after-recov
6617412 soprano-virtuoso.db
2736soprano-virtuoso.log
0   soprano-virtuoso.pxa
2052soprano-virtuoso-temp.db
0   soprano-virtuoso.trx
5684soprano-virtuoso.trx-after-recov

Which is I believe a mysql database.
I really dont want this garbage and on browsing the net I find lots of people 
with similar opinions.
Whatever has happened to KDE to have them foist this on us?
If I (try to) turn nepomuk  off, I Iose things like my kmail address book 
(kmail being the most important thing to me at the moment).
What is going on - has kde been taken over by microsoft
I'm angry!
