I remember to have seen such problems on Windows before. It's a kdelibs thing, 
handling ioslave processes. Maybe something is wrong with letting processes 
die after a certain timeout? Does the main icon views still work ater this? 
Digikam just gives the kdelibs (KIO) a URL and waits for the results, we can't 
do so much about this in digikam code.
