I guess you could also make a /backup directory that is owned by you to test if that works also. Did you check to see if you had a /backup directory? If so, who owns it? If owned by root, you can just change that to you.
hopefully helpful, Lee
Martin, also, check if you have the same behaviour using another user. Most probably this is per user setting. All kde user settings are under ~/.kde. Use konqueror or mc to search in all files there to see where the string "backup" appears.

Thank you a lot Sunny, THAT helped. It is in the file $HOME/.kde/share/config/kgetrc. Previously I was looking at the wrong places. In that file there is a section called "Directories" and under that an option called "LastDirectory". When I changed the directory there I didn't get the error anymore. But now there is something else which I have to look for: the file is being downloaded as it should but not displayed. However, thank you very much Sunny and you all. Martin
