I found konqueror-crash-qH1960.log, konqueror-crash-qH1448.log and
konqueror-crash-qH1304.log in a .kde subdirectory in my current use
Documents and Settings directory, so I guessed it by now. Not much info
in them (closed(51fc):
opened(51fc):about:konqueror or closed(6bf):
opened(6bf):about:konqueror and some info about web sites open at the
moment, if any)

No use duplicating that report, then. :) It would have been duplicated,
since (no surprise to me) I got the Zarro Boogs message when searching
for it.
