Hi A while ago I had a slow download problem in Konq and somebody suggested exporting 2 kde items, one stopped konq from attempting dns and the other disabled more recent net protocol extensions. I've lost the email some how or the other and can't remember what they were. Can some one refresh my memory? Also I assume that exports are not permanent if done from Konsole and must be edited into some file in order to make them permanent? Regards John ___________________________________________________ .
