Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)

Description says "clear...", since no data is really cleared I assume
that "clear..." means "keep". Please, fix this -- change the words, or
change the checkboxes.

And while talking about the labeling, please change "clean up" to "clear
all data" -- to use the same verb and make it clear it is about to clear
all data, not only selected (right?).

I don't see the problem. The description tells the effect when you have
toggled the option. Which means: clear it if option foo is enabled.

I can see only one problem -- if "clear" really means "clear", that it
does not work at all. It does not clear anything, so it is a bug in
execution, not naming. Reopening.

PS. To be sure I am catching the idea of the Privacy feature -- is it
automatic or manual? I assumed it is both.

OK, there seems to be some bug in execution. Often it works like it
describes, sometimes it does not (tested with Konqueror History).

May it be related to Konqueror instances that are kept in memory? I've
noticed that if I delete ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/konq_history and
~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/faviconrc during my KDE session, and then
log out, those files are recreated with the previous content. The only
explanation I can think of is  that the in-memory Konqueror instance
preserves that information and flushes it to disk when it exists (which
occurs at the end of the KDE session).

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been
unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Kcontrol has been
replaced by System Settings in Plasma. Please give the latest version of
that a try, and open a new bug in "systemsettings" if you continue to
have an issue. Thank you!
