I will try this out. Just for those who don't spend a lot of time in the KDE Control Center, I finally found the option Jason is referring too in KDE Components -> Session Manager. That might save some people some time.
Thanks, Jim

I've recently upgraded (if you can call it that) to SuSE 9.3 Pro, and it came with Firefox 1.0 as the default browser.
Thinks started out pretty good, but now at various times my computer just seems to loose its attention. I have to click again on links and buttons, just to get it to go where I want.
I don't know whether that is a result of my slow prrocessor (500 MHz k6-2) or if someone hacked into Firefox while I was online.
Just curious if you guys have seen anything similar . . . ??????
I recently discovered that a horde of programs now take advantage of the session save and restore functions in KDE and Gnome... things that you think have been shut down (but that really went to a background process) that were never added to any kind of "start up list" will keep coming back each time you log in because they have been "restored to their previously running state" by the session manager. You can solve this by telling the desktop environment that you do NOT want to save a list of programs that are running when you log out and do NOT attempt to restart them when you log back in.
It cleaned things up quite a bit for me.
