I've attached the file that David Faure kindly provided me - there is another 
post in this thread from him explaining what to do to fix the problem, I've 
copied it below...

--- BEGIN - David Faure

Hmm, then it can only be a ksycoca problem.
Is kded running (look for a process named "kdeinit: kded") ?

Backup your ~/.kde/tmp-$HOSTNAME/ksycoca for debugging purposes
(Waldo asks me to ask for this ;), and then run "kbuildsycoca" in a terminal
(ignore warnings about duplicate definitions).

--- END - David Faure

this fixed the problem for me :)
