Public bug reported:

I am running konqueror 4:4.2.1-0ubuntu1~intrepid1 using KDE 4.2 in
Intrepid, installed as described in http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2
.

When opening certain sites, konqueror starts to generate lots of strange
traffic to certain Google hosts (eg. fg-in-f118.google.com).

For example:
1. Run netstat:
rai...@abc ~ $ sudo netstat -ap | grep google
(no output)

2. Start konqueror, open http://cpptruths.blogspot.com/2007/04/boost-
idioms.html

3. Run netstat again:
rai...@abc ~ $ sudo netstat -ap | grep google

4. Iftop and KDE's network activity plasmoid show lots of traffic until
konqueror is killed.
