Are you sure you haven't set KDE to do single clicks? 

In fact, I always have the opposite complaint that gnomish apps always 
want double clicks, so I click once (my preferred setting), wait for 
it open and nothing happens. Just like on other people's windoze 
boxes (to be fair, even 'doze had this configurable last time I 
looked - a while ago now).

I recollect that the KDE setting works about half the time, but some 
apps still want double clicks for some functions - I've never stopped 
to analyse which do what and why.
