Thanks for the reply.  I have a AMD 2500+ machine with 1GB of ram and I
have left it for a pretty good while, as long as 5 minutes or so, and it
has never given up.  It uses a lot of CPU time which it doesn't do when
it is searching.  During the search it only uses 10% or so, after I hit
the stop button it goes to about 90 to 95% or so.

I'm using Gentoo and I don't have any wild settings for the compile
process and this is really the only issue I have with KDE.  It just
seems odd to me.  That and it has been around for so long too.

I'll keep that kdeinit in mind and try it next time.  That will beat
logging out and back in.  Well, I can do it in less than a minute but
typing in kdeinit is faster.  lol

Thanks

Dale
