If you really don't want it, try removing it from here, and see what happens?
/home/<user>/.kde/share/apps/kwallet
I use it for not all that important passwords, and select never for this site
when I don't want it to save a particular password. Just another app that you
can use or not as you choose. Neither good nor bad, unless you judge it so.
