Let me introduce you to the trash bin, trash bin, this is noskule :)
When you point Konqueror to trash:/ you'll see the contents of the trash. 
Unfortunately, the trash keeps all your 'deleted' files until you manually 
delete them forever.

To delete files immediately, use the Shift-Delete combo on files.

And while talking about the trash and it's disk usage, I wrote a script [1] 
which automatically removes all files older than 14 days in the trash. Make 
sure you run this periodically (e.g. in a cronjob to run it on a daily basis 
on the background).
