Then I don't understand - if I put www.abc.com, select IE, and click ADD - it
shows that it added it, but when I click again - the * that was the default for
everything to be shown as konqueror - dissapears and I got only the line that I
created..

So either erase the * line from the beginning - or the user (just like me) will
get confused..

also, I didn't understand about the ".kde.org" - does it mean that if I have
a.abcd.org and b.abcd.org and c.abcd.org - then I can set up .abcd.org as
netscape and this should cover all hosts inside abcd.org?

Thanks,
Hetz
