The Akregator archive does not support concurrent access by multiple instances 
(which is usually prevented by being a unique application). Since 3.5.3 (or 
was it 3.5.4?), there is additional locking and a dialog should appear when 
the archive is already locked. However, before experimenting with that, 
better make a backup of  ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator/Archive
