Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Installed from: FreeBSD Ports
OS: FreeBSD
Every once in a while, a 'HTTP Cache Cleaner' process pops up in my
taskbar and makes my cursor bouncy (i.e. triggers the launch feedback as
configured in my settings).
I suspect it's Konqueror keeping the cache below the size threshold - I
think it would make sense to do this silently though, regardless of
launch feedback settings.
I think this behaviour started with KDE 3.4.0.

Do not think so. I have cache size in my konqueror set to 1 KB (in
reality konqueror have cache about few megabytes with many small files -
this is also bug; you may ask why I need so much small cache - this is
simple, I need it for correct work with my cache-proxy, this is because
of enabling or disabling cache in the browser changes its special
headers within packets), and my cursor becomes bouncy and only after
about 5-10 minutes becomes normal again (this MUCH more than maximum
time in my setting - so this program probably try to start more than one
time I think).
I have currently KDE 3.4.2, Debian GNU/Linux.

This is visible in GNOME when running KDE applications, as GNOME does
not honour "X-KDE-StartupNotify=false". The proper cross-desktop way to
do this is with "StartupNotify=False", I believe.
Also, this isn't a Konqueror issue, but a kdelibs issue. Basically,
http_cache_cleaner.desktop needs "StartupNotify=False" instead of "X
-KDE-StartupNotify=false". Can someone reassign this?

Here it is sometimes still worse: when I am using KDE, I see "HTTP Cache
Cleaner" appearing in my task list, and a bouncing cursor of an empty
document, and this does not stop. Only way to get rid of the HTTP Cache
cleaner in the task list, and the bouncing cursor, is to log out :-(

This is a problem for me as well but on Gentoo Linux (KDE 3.5.9 - kde-

I also find the launch feedback and entry in the task list quite
annoying and distracting.

Also seen in 4.2.4 (arch linux, kdelibs 4.2.4-4)
I got rid of the task bar entry by restarting plasma. The bouncing cursor stopped while typing this, 5-10 minutes after it started. KDE applications running at the time it occured: amarok, kopete and konsole + various plasmoids. I've been using kde since for ever, but this is the first time I've seen this bug.

Just wondering and don't know if that might be related, but why exactly
is that desktop file in the applications directory even though it is a
service type and why is it not using StartupNotify=false?
Seems like one would not want it in any menu (+ it is a service type)
and no startup notification in any desktop, right? So why not move it to
the serivces directory and remove the X-KDE- from the StartupNotify
entry?

Woops, my fault, was looking at the wrong ls :) ... it is already in the

But I still think it should be using the regular StartupNotify.

In my case this behavior began when I upgraded kdelibs5-plugins from 4.3
to 4.4, the strange thing is that this never happened to me before. As a
side note, I use xfce in this computer, and all those hidden windows
appear when I browse web pages in konqueror with the cache enabled.
Disabling TaskbarButton in the klaunchrc (as suggested in some blogs)
does not work, and changing X-KDE-StartupNotify to StartupNotify in the
services file didn't help either.
Besides that, the cache cleaner is not working, as it starts to grow
well beyond the configured limit, even if I press the 'Clear Cache'
button in konqueror's Preferences.
But if I start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kio_http_cache_cleaner & as a
background process in a terminal, everything works nicelly, the cache
works (without growing too much beyond its limit), and those annoying
Launch notifications doesn't appear anymore...
So I guess the problem must be that konqueror or kio_http (I don't know)
is not starting correctly the kio_http_cache_cleaner daemon. I've also
tried making a wrapper for this application and it's ONLY run when the
'Clear Cache' button is pressed and with the '--clear-all' parameter.
I hope this helps in the understanding of the bug.
