I'm a bit happy. I found the bug report thanks to you Eli. I was going over it and I got two ideas out of it. The first was to switch from webkit to KHTML in Konqueror. I haven't used Konqueror in a long time so I did that *but* I was able to recreate the crash. That alone didn't solve the problem but I left KHTML selected. Further down in the bug report a user said "disable the cache in Konqueror" and so I did that and so far, no crashing. I mean, I followed my pattern for a little while and it never crashed. I haven't lost my faith completely but I wouldn't be surprised I get a crash soon but so far so good. The bug report I found is here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=286307 Thanks Eli, hopefully I won't see a crash in a while. On Sunday, June 10, 2012 11:29:10 AM Eli Wapniarski wrote: > Yes...
