The next time (if there is a next time), create a new user and see if everything works. If so, export your old user's address book to a directory somewhere safe, and rename your .kde directory in the /home for your old username. Restart kde and log in as your old username, and everything will probably work when kde creates a new .kde for your old username. If it does, remove your new user. Be aware you will lose all your kde settings (hence the backup of your address book--you can backup and maybe recover your mail, also). e
