Dear Kent: No, absolutely not! I downloaded the Debian 3.1 iso, burned it into a CD and installed it clean and fresh into its own separate disk (dev/hdd), which I made sure Debian first deleted, then partitioned, then formatted, then installed. And, once again, I do not have any such problem with any other browser (Firefox, Mozilla, Gaelon, Epiphany). This is a Konqueror issue. At least, that's what I think.
