I'm using 10.3

I haven't noticed any hit in system performance.  Just the inability to 
connect to the web servers (I think).

Correct about using the same user.

I only had three each when I tried those commands after reading this email.  
So I dropped the wc command and these are what I got:

user@machine:~> ps afx | grep kio_http
12499 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ kdeinit4: kio_http [kd up
12527 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ kdeinit4: kio_http [kd up
12560 pts/1    S+     0:00      \_ grep kio_http        
user@machine:~> ps afx | grep kio_file
11411 ?        S      0:00  \_ kdeinit4: kio_file [kd up
14132 ?        S      0:00  \_ kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-use
12570 pts/1    S+     0:00      \_ grep kio_file

(I changed ksocket-user to ksocket-use because for some reason, it dropped the 
last letter of my user name.)

Well, guess what?  It did.  But only for a bit.  After a couple of times, I 
took out the -i because even if there was something I should keep, I wouldn't 
know what it was, I think, but what happened was this: after using killall, I 
could connect to a website.  I could maybe follow one or two links and I would 
have the problem again.  I would use killall again and wherever I was going 
would load.  And so on.  Sometimes, the connection failed while the page was 
loading - leaving some images broken, for instance.  I would then killall and 
refresh and it loaded okay.  Until the next time.

Okay, so kio_http (most of the time I used the killall command, I'd get 
"kio_file: no process killed", ruling that out) is somehow getting stuck on 
something?  What's going on?  Can I fix it?  Do you have any suggestions as to 
how I could isolate the problem?
