What The???

I use Alt-F2 to launch apps all the time, so imagine my surprise when today when I suddenly got the following dialog the first time I launch a program:

KDE Vista

What is this, KDE Vista???

I guess that has to do with the security features implemented for desktop-files. Yet I'm pretty sure that it will be improved. ;)

Ah, and to the author. Maybe

Ah, and to the author. Maybe you used a \<img\> directly, which gets filtered out by your "Filtered HTML" filter, or you used an inline tag and the Inline Filter comes before the HTML filter, which replaces the tag with \<img\> and that gets filtered out again.

.desktop security

As you know it is a general consensus that you can't execute anything that has no exec file permission.
This didn't apply to .desktop files, so it introduced a /security/ breach that raised quite a hype over the intertubes (http://www.geekzone.co.nz/foobar/6229)
So, to avoid that situation, the services (.desktop files) that are in the user-space (that is not the system-wide ones) have to have the x bit set. The dialogue above essentially asks you whether you want to set the execution bit.
p.s. And please stop trying to use journalistic (and troll) hooks like... cheerio!

RE: .desktop security

I remember a big discussion about this a few months back.  If I recall correctly, people didn't really like this solution, but nobody could come up with a better one that still maintained system security so this is what they went with. 

jajajaa

yeah! KDE 4.4 will another option:

When you press alt+f2 will appear Konqi saying: "It looks like you're trying to run some app.. Would you like help?". 

 PD: Clippy joke. 

Take a read here

Would you like some help..

This one has got me
