This is doubly bad for Konq because the exposure that most users get to Konqueror Web Browser is through the filemanager because *most* distributions change the default web browser to firefox. So the only time you see Konqueror is when you click on it for file management, oh and then you find out it's world-class web browser and keep using it for everything.

This varies greatly depending on the distro. On Kubuntu, I don't even have firefox installed, nevermind it being the default browser. And distros like gentoo of course always let the user decide.

Some KDE specific distros (I'll use kubuntu as the example again, since that's what I know best) are even moving openoffice out in favour of koffice as the default.
