Please reconsider the poor design choice of a kded module for the following 
reasons:
	any deadlocks or hangs in your code will end anyones kde fun quickly
	any crashes in your module will likewise cause  pain dejour
	dcopservices are easier to manage (start/stop/kill -9 when they go nuts and 
eat cpu and memory)
	any memory issues go away on the dcopservices restart vs kded modules

This is just a small list, im sure the bugs.kde.org will help fill in any 
missing parts for you.

If you need help with dcopservices, i have templates and howto code thats 
easily available.

Cheers
