Hi, again.

The problem turned out to be a buggy program - namely ktorrent; it worked well 
until yesterday; but now, it opens several HUNDRED kio_http processes; I 
updated the system yesterday and probably some of the libs have modified the 
program's behavior.
Anyway, many thanks to you both Grahame and Ralph.

Greetings,
Mitko
