Now we're getting somewhere. On my system (RedHat 7.2 with kde-2.2.2) I go 
to the aforementioned  kcontrol->Look&Feel->Window 
Behavior->Advanced
And I do not have Active Desktop Borders. What I do have is:

Windows
Shading
Magic Borders

But no Active Desktop Borders

Is there some way to enable this functionality?
