also if i use gaim to open my yahoo messenger account it doesn't open, and when i installed yahoo messenger for linux it works fine and if i open my yahoo messenger account from gain while opening it in yahoo messenger it open instantly with no problems.
As you say, weird.
Can you try the commands ping gmail.com and ping 64.233.161.107 while you (a) don't have anything open; (b) just have mozilla open; (c) have konqueror and mozilla open; and (d) just have konqueror open?
It sounds as though konqueror is doing something to establish a connection. No idea what, though.
What sort of Internet connection do you use? ADSL? If so, do you have a modem or a router or something else, and does it connect via Ethernet or USB (or something else[1])?
