Hi!
  I'm compiling from sources mainly to be able to read them... So I've found that
the DHCP is invoked to find the proxy. I verified my proxy settings in konq and
found that I have the "use proxy" button checked together with the "Automatically
detect script file". I probably played with it formerly... OK, my stupidity.
  So I unchecked this, started browsing, and the situation repeated. I then
verified the setting and it was checked again! I've found that I CAN'T DISABLE
THE PROXY. Once I press "OK" on the konq config dialog and invoke it again, it's
just as before, i.e. active! This is definitely a bug.
  The worst thing is that this machine is running a Squid proxy and I was unable
to set it up easily. Formerly I was able to enter the proxy IP, i.e. 127.0.0.1 in my
case, but now, I need at least an environment variable for this. WHY ??? I hacked
it by entering HOSTNAME as a HTTP proxy address, but it can't be treated as an
universal method.
  It's also interesting that such a change was saved and now it works well.

                                              With regards, Pavel Troller
