This is actually not related to the % encoding problem in IE, but a general 
regression that was introduced in KDE 3.0.3 release. 

Below is the fix which has been tested and committed to CVS already. 

Note that this is a fairly minor problem, as the evilhacker can always 
create a subdomain like yahoo.evilhacker.net and proxy the yahoo pages 
there, and all browsers will give access to the frames in this case. 

Note that in any case the "wrong" url is still visible in the location bar 
so it should be obvious that although it looks like yahoo, it isn't 
yahoo at all.
