I am giving below the actions I tried to resolve the problem. But no success!

Problem:

Installed and applied latest update as of this minute. When I bring up
Konqueror browser, i get the welcome page and the task bar button at the
bottom with "Conquer your desktop" text. Then I enter cnn.com or any other
URL . I get another task bar button with " blinking timer-cursor and
Konqueror " text. But i am not getting to the url in the original window or
in a new window for the second task bar. i.e i have a second button without
any browser window. When I click the blinking taskbar, it does not display
the cnn or any url as there is no window for it to display. Still the first
task bar shows the welcome page browser window. When I get out of the first
welcome page url, the welcome page browser ends, but the the second task
bar with blinking text still continues. I tried few times bringing up and
down. Now I have 6 blinking taskbars and I can not close them!!!

Then I tried Firefox and Web Browser to do the same. Both of them work in
the usual way without any problem.

Tried:

Removed konqueror package (kdeaddons3-konqueror) and reinstalled it. But
still the problem continues. The monitor shows cpu is 100% with all the
unkillable konqueor sessions running with only the task bars and no
corresponding windows! To solve the problem, I am avoiding using konq
browser and using firefox. Some times some application autoly brings up
Konq browser and again puts me into problem!

Any suggestion is welcome.

Suggestion:
Is it just URL's causing this issue in Konqueror? What happens if you
browse files in it? file:/ ?

Tried:

I am not even getting to any URL I specify! Whenever I enter new URL
another task bar comes up but no window. If I close the first window where
Konq's info comes, the window goes away, but the task bar stays on. CPU is
always 100% with 1 or more Konq task bars showing blinking sand glass timer!

How do I disable Konq as a default browser?

Tried:
ile:/ works and displays root file system's directories. If I enter any
internet urls's, I get the task button with hour-glass blinking eith Konq
text and now windows.
