  uhm, that is probably kwallet just doing his job, that is, store
  passwords for internet sites. you should be experiencing the very same
  behavior with other sites that require you to authenticate, right?

  you can globally disable the wallet system in KControl -> Security &
  Privacy -> KDE Wallet.

  if I've completely misunderstood your report, and in fact you're used
  to kwallet and what you're reporting is, in fact, some anomalous
  behavior, please try explaining again.

  thanks,

From the moment I picked your book up until I put it down I was
convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.
