Have to agree on how good konqueror is. When I occasionally have to use Windows it makes Windows explorer seem like the pathetic file manager it is! If I need to do ftp I always use konqueror and find myself using it for browsing the Internet more and more these days. If a flash movie on something like you tube crashes, it doesn't shut down the whole browser like the ever increasingly buggy Firefox 3 does; it just gives the KDE error dialogue, you can shut that dialogue down, hit refresh and it reloads the movie.

KDE4 (at least with Mandriva seems to push Dolphin (although konqueror is still there) and although Dolphin is not bad, it just doesn't seem as good as konqueror (yet).

I have no problems with the detail/icon view in Mandriva of any flavour for quite some time. View | View Mode | Detailed List View and then Settings | Save View Profile et voilà!
