Seems I had that problem too and solved it the newbie way: Started konqueror
in adminstrator mode (menu entry somewhere under system), went
to /usr/local/bin, right click on the hijacker and simply put myself as
user instead of root (still left groups at root though...). That at least
will work if you have only one user, which luckily is the case for me here.
