Roy and Todd, Thanks to the posting by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> it appears that our problem (NY Times, UK Register and NHL) is due to an erroneous IPV6 call that is rejected and/or times out. It is also recommended to recompile kdelibs with IPV6 set to no. It makes a lot of sense, earlier in this list (on the 12th and 13th) several posters indicated the problem went away with 3.08 of konqueror - Self-compiled KDE3.1 beta users are OK.
I am using the karolina debs and kdelibs have been split up. I don't know where to find the source and what "split" contains the IPV6 call. I have a relatively slow machine and generally don't compile KDE for that reason. Let's hope official KDE 3.1 will fix the problem. Is there any way I can be insured of that? What confuses me, is how can KDE make an IPV6 call when I specifically compiled my kernel without IPV6? -- ___________________________________________________________________ Michael Hoodes http://www.hoodes.com Seattle, WA
