    Exclamation KTorrent Issue

    Hi everyone,
    I am very new to Linux (from Windows) and I am having a problem with KTorrent.

    I had problems with my laptop overheating (resolved now) so that when it got too hot, my computer would just freeze, and I'd have to physically turn it off and then back on again.

    I downloaded a torrent while using my computer, and then when it had finished seeding, I stopped it and removed it from the KTorrent. Then I moved the file out of my torrent d/l directory and deleted the torrent file.

    My computer froze and I had to turn off and on, and now everytime KTorrent starts up, I get the message "Cannot create <torrent file> , no such file or directory"

    How do I get rid of this message?

    I hope my question/explanation makes sense, as I have said I am very new to this o/s.

    Thanks in advance

    EDIT: Sorry I forgot to mention I am using Suse 10.1. Let me know what other information I need to provide.

    If you are currently not downloading any torrents, then do
    Code:
    $rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent  ~/.kde/share/config/ktorrentrc
    An alternative would be to close ktorrent when it starts, then go to Kcontrol -> KDE Components -> Session Manager -> On Login -> Start with empty session.
