Of course the process should be killed after the session is finished but 
obviously for one reason or another it is not... You can use both fish:// and 
sftp:// in konqueror so just try switching to using sftp://username@sdfadsf, 
for example. I posted a question on this list sometime ago asking what 
exactly the difference between the two things was because for me they behaved 
exactly the same. A lot of people actually said they are the same but use 
different names, that was until a more enlightened one of us gave me the 
information that I gave you.
