No problem.  Indeed I can duplicate this and have already fixed it.  I will 
backport it to the KDE_3_0_BRANCH so that it will be there for the 3.0.1 
release. Let me know if you want just patch and I will send it to you.

Yes :)  It seems that fixing/enhancing one thing breaks something else...

Thanks much yet again :)  Without your deligence report we would not have 
found so many proxy related probems.  Things should be better in the future, 
however, since I am going to setup a web-server for testing and test such 
things throughly before release.  

Sorry about the inconvenience...
