konq and kdeinit prob

[ab2ms]

For the past week I have had to fight with konqueror. Whenever I click on a directory I get the error pop up "kdeinit could not launch /path/to/directory. If I clear the error and put the cursor up in the address bar and hit enter it enters the directory, but I always have that annoying extra step now I must have changed a setting without realizing it, but what? Or what config file do I erase to reset the settings? I'm running mandrake 10,1 and all was fine up to a week or so ago. Now it wants to "launch" the dirs now instead of just entering them.
