There may be KUrl/Qurl  fixes required see 
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-windows&m=116663586908938&w=2, but this 
issues should be fixed in the second step. More important is that the 
socket communications works.

The most big change is that Thiago migrated parts of the KDE socket code 
to QSocket and friends. May be that there are some issues or migrations 
required to QSocket  based code and Thiago can help in this area.

One of the reason why Thiago migrated to QSocket is that Windows Sockets 
are unreliable in some areas and using QSocket makes it easier for us, 
because Trolltechs supports this socket code.

See kio\kio\slavebase.cpp. On unix the master opens a unix domain socket 
to which the client connects. On windows the socket should be tcp and 
the message above indicates that the client could not connect to the 
socket the master has opened.

The problem is that debugging kioslaves is very dynamic because of 
process starting and socket connection timeouts.

As I debugged it the last time i had used a tcp monitor (search google 
for tdimon and/or windump http://www.winpcap.org/windump) to inspect the 
states of the socket communications. Additional I placed debug messages 
in important places of the kio slave code to see in which state the 
communication fails.

BTW: I used kioslavetest to check the kio communication.
