           Summary: Krusader (Norton Commander Clone) abandoned? (Missing on
                    Knoppix 3.1)
           Product: konqueror
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: gnor@x-mail.net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

Dear Developers!

This may be a Knoppix peculiarity, but it could also a result from
switching to KDE 3.x.

Krusader was advertised prominently on KDE 2.x on the SuSE 7.1 Live
Eval.

Especially paranoid people would appreciate a Norton-ish file manager
with an unintegrated Mozilla or Opera over Konqueror.

MSIE has ruined completely the concept of blurring the boundary between
local and remote resources by giving the equivalent of shell access to
anybody who could write J(ava)Script/VBScript and connect to an ActiveX
object from these languages. This blows away any security scheme you
may conjure up since Registry access is straightforward and that is the
SPOF of Windows.

So any "unifying" interface will scare away any Windows user that may
abandon this madly spying OS for something better controllable like
Linux or a BSD.

Kind regards
