[kde-linux] Problem changing search engines in konqueror

[Agron Selimaj]

No, no, I am not typing the google address into the LOCATION BAR, but to the 
right of the GO BUTTON which is to the right of the location bar on KDE 3.5 
there is a search bar as well. 

See the thing red arrow is pointing to. If you click on the icon inside the 
search bar a menu shows up and the "Select Search Engines..." option lets you 
customize the search engines. Whatever I do in there is lost. Factory default 
settings come back as soon as I go into "Select Search Engines..." again.

I am in canada as well.
