Even if the applet was started, without the NetworkManager service
running, it should do nothing.  But you still should be able to stop it
starting, at all, if you want to.

It's yonks since I've used KDE, but you'd have to look through your KDE
preferences to find programs started during your login session.  In
Gnome, we have a "gnome-sessions-properties" preference, but I suspect
that KDE uses its own.

If you can't find this yourself, I'd suggest starting a new thread about
how to control programs started when you login to a KDE session.  You
might catch the attention of a KDE user who's not watching a wireless
LAN thread.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
