Actually KDE has builtin SMB browser support. Never tried it but I beleive
you can just type in an SMB URL in the file manager (Konqueror?) address
bar like:

  smb://

This should give you a list of workgroups. You can drill down from
there. The SMB URL draft indicates the full spec is:

  smb://[[[domain;]username[:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port]/[[share/[dir/]file]]]

but I don't think all of it works in KDE. Note server can be a workgroup
or server name. So if:

  smb://myworkgroup/

refers to a workgroup you should get a list of servers. But if:

  smb://myserver/

refers to a server you should get a list of shares. If you do:

  smb://myserver/share/path/to/dir/

you get a list of files.
