Comment 18 for bug 86680

I would also like to confirm this bug. I recently did a fresh install of Feisty Kubuntu. I noted then that Akregator would not download any of the feeds it comes subscribed to by default. Yesterday I installed KDE 3.5.7 and there is no change in the behavior of Akregator. Konqueror also cannot access the Internet, but Firefox and Opera have no problems doing so. I tried turning off Knetwork Manager, but this did not seem to make any difference on my machine. Even after turning of Knetwork Manager, Akregator still cannot access any RSS feeds.
