KDE is 2.1.1 and Konq is 2.1.1 
I also tested a file dialog box in Kmail which leads me to assume any
KDE file 
browsing dialog box could be used to cause a DOS .

KDE did fix an issue I discovered prior with long filenames in KFM
perhaps this is a similar bug rearing its head again? I have attached
rapeme.tar which places a very long directory structure in /tmp. Open
Konqueror and start double clicking... eventually KDE goes boom anyone
know why? Here are my OS specs.

[elguapo@linux elguapo]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
