           Summary: Disable plugins (e.g. Bittorrent) not possible

           Version: unspecified

        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kget kde org
        ReportedBy: jan holmek de


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Currently it seems that it's not possible to disable specific plugins (by using a checkbox or something similar in the settings window of KGet).

Some would consider this report as a wish, but I'd rathers ay this is a bug, because the main function of KGet (to download files via HTTP/FTP/etc.) is compromised:

→ I can't download *.torrent-files anymore, because they are handled by the bittorrent plugin of KGet.

→ Downloading files from rapidshare.com is not possible (»Your IP is already downloading files.«) - I think the multithread plugin is the cause.

So it would be nice to add a dialog to disable plugins when downloading from specific domains. At least, there should be a switch to disable a plugin completely.
