I wondered about this. > So where are the "severe network problems" you allude to? Konqueror is unusable this morning because almost no web accesses other than those to my local webpages are completing. > And why does your email suggest any of this is related to OpenBSD? As I mentioned, while I was having slow response in Konqueror on 3.8 last week, the response times have become MUCH worse in the last three days, which is roughly the time that I have had 3.9 installed. I did not mean to suggest that OpenBSD is causing these delays. The length of time it takes to get no new messages from verizon mail server suggests strongly that it is a problem with the verizon network. (I *am* having a number of problems with kde 3.5.1, but that is not an OpenBSD issue). I was looking for either 'Me too' or 'No problem here' responses from other OpenBSD users with respect to network throughput problems. Your response seems to fall in the latter category. Thanks for the feedback.
