I've just suffered repeated lock-ups on a site as common as amazon.de.
Konqueror goes to almost 100% CPU and all I can do is kill the process.
I'm not sure whether the behavior is deterministic for particular pages
as this tends to happen on dynamic pages where I can check afterwards if
there are slight differences.
Konqueror has been my favorite browser for years, but with 4.x it is
acquiring an unstable bent.
