Krusader, which is an X mc. And I very much hope that no one ever tries to
make Konqueror a browser anymore -- the idea of it as a web browser was
abaodoned by KDE about five years ago, to the regret of no one because it
really sucked in that function.

There are a lot of good web browsers. (And too many KDE file managers!)

Konqueror was an adequate browser for its time, back when KDE2 was superseded by KDE3,
but the (dubious) HTML "standard" has been so much of a moving target, without
dedicated
Konqueror-only supporters it couldn't keep up. :-(
What I really miss is a browser like aWeb, which allowed the user to selectively display
images, interactively browse and maintain the cache, and customize its interface even
more than KDE does. IMO, the browser development community has sold out to the interests
of commercial trackers and data collectors.
