Well, it appears that when you write a question like this you will find your 
answer faster.  Like pushing the elevator button repeatedly, :-).  

Actually I found in this list some loosely related problems with konqueror, 
and kicker.  The problem is that if you (using SuSE especially) update KDE 
the old files in /tmp don't appreciate it and don't go away.  after I went in 
and deleted ALL the files from /tmp I was able to login, logout, and see the 
process go away properly. 

Now, is it completely resolved?  Maybe.  But, either way I do have a work 
around until one is found.  BTW:  the buzilla number and link is:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48984

According the the bug number above most, if not all, are using SuSE 8.0 or 
above.  One person even mentioned that the problem shows up over time, which 
makes me wonder if I have "fixed" it, or delayed it.
