thankfully I didn't have to restart the computer:
$ uptime
 14:35:35 up 47 days, 10:29,  4 users,  load average: 1.01, 0.64, 0.54

all it took was deleting that file (ok, I moved it)
mv .DCOPserver_paulandcilla.homelinux.org__0 
.DCOPserver_paulandcilla.homelinux.org__0.orig

and ran konqueror and it worked.
 I had first logged in the guest account using gnome and it also worked, so 
recreating/deleting that file was the answer.
learned something new! I hate "just reboot", I'd rather learn WHY..
