Re: Bug#291091: Konqueror 3.3.1-4 respawns on clicking any link
I've seen this before and have a potential solution for you:
Go the 'Control Center -> KDE Components -> Component Chooser -> Web Browser'
and make sure you do _not_ have 'in the following browser selected' with
'konqueror' in the text field.
The problem is this: if you have konqueror explicitly listed there then
whenever KDE attempts opens a link it checks what program should be used, if
you've told it to use konqueror it will run konqueror and tell it to open the
URL. Konqueror then asks KDE what app should be used to open the URL, wash,
rinse, repeat.
This may not be the problem in your case, but I'd bet that even if it isn't,
it's something similar playing off of the mimetype or component system.
