KDE uses kfm for both web pages and local directories.  You can
click on, e.g., your home directory icon and open a local directory
window, then type in an HTTP URL.  You should have a home directory
icon on your desktop, and another one on the panel at the bottom
of the screen.

You can also invoke kfm from the command line.  This isn't very well
documented -- I found out by poking around, I think.  Type,

        kfmclient exec http://www.euglug.org/
or
        kfmclient exec file:/home/lindsay

In a directory window, pull down File->New->(whatever).  That creates
an icon in that window.  Then right-click it and select Properties to
change its look and feel.

Putting an icon into the KDE menu or onto the panel is too complicated
to explain here. (-:

I'd like to have one in my laptop so it can figure out what its
network settings are based on where it is. (-:
