IIRC, I eventually thought I could give it a try on a site that I regarded
as unimportant. It seemed not particularly useful, but I guess that was
the trigger for it to become a complete block on all other sites too. I
shall probably have to purge everything kde to get rid of its database,
and then reinstall the bits I use again, and simply suffer the damn thing
popping up when it chooses. They really ought to have a "do not show
this window again" option for those who do not want it.
Thanks anyway.
