Thanks Merv, but I hardwire connect to my router via eth0 and it still
doesn't work.  I could literally have both firefox and konq running
side-by-side, firefox will work and konq will not.

As for the proxy settings, I've checked kcontrol to verify that it's
not setup but am willing to check elsewhere if you can give me an idea
where.

Thanks,
Brad.
