           Summary: akregator hangs or freezes on selecting unread
                    slashdot rss item
           Product: akregator
           Version: 1.6.6
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: hinsch.martin at gmail.com


Version:           1.6.6 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

After the first unread item in the Slashdot rss has been selected Akregator
hangs. The unread item displays fine but the application becomes unresponsive.
Sometimes it unfreezes after half a minute or so, sometimes it seems to be
stuck forever. In some cases a waiting cursor is shown. 
I have plenty of feeds in my akregator but Slashdot is the only one that
triggers this behaviour. I tried removing and re-adding the feed but that
doesn't change anything.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Wait for an unread item to appear in the slashdot feed, select it by mouse or
keyboard.

Actual Results:  
Akregator becomes unresponsive, sometimes with waiting cursor.

Expected Results:  
this shouldn't happen.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.38-12-generic
Compiler: gcc
