It's now quite public, but you can check
        http://dot.kde.org/988663144/ to see that a new version of
        kdelibs3 is released, that covers a security hole.

        It also fixes something I suspected a few days ago, but that I
        could not isolate well enough to report here: a memory leak in
        Konqueror.

        Browsing some pr0n sites (which actually put your browser
        under quite a good stress test), I noticed that Linux started
        swapping like mad, but I didn't know the cause. After some
        more browsing, er, investigation :-), I identified that the
        reason might be a possible memory leak.

        This memory leak also seems to have evidenced another memory
        leak: it *seems* that Linux 2.4.4 also has a memory leak
        (memory which was allocated on swap after the Konqueror thing
        didn't get back even *after* I went to the console using
        single user mode!).

        So, it's nice to see this nasty bug fixed. :-)
