[Bug 363670] Re: Ktorrent goes crazy on the hd after reboot with no internet connection

[Frostybeard]

Hi,

This system has 2 gigs installed. I don't think I was anywhere close to
running out of memory. The going crazy seemed to be due to either that
I had no network connection, or that I had just installed the firewall.
Ktorrent had been previously seeding.
