Description Shaun Crampton 2004-07-13 09:45:10 UTC

Somehow this happened on my setup... dont know how.

For example in konqueror typing http://www.google.com in is fine -- but clicking for example the 'images' link opens a download dialog with 'Type html' + "what would you like to do with this file". 

This results from a file being created in ~/kde/share/mimelnk/text called html.desktop containing the following:
[Desktop Entry]
X-KDE-AutoEmbed=false

I'm not sure but this may have been done by Tunderbird maybe -- anyway, there was no way to reverse the behaviour from the KDE control panels.

Resolved by removing the file.

And what do you think shall we do when you (or the program you are using) change your configuration?
