fried by otherworldly forces, but pretty bad, and I try not to repeat
them.
to do what Thierry advised you need to unlock the panel. Then configure the
systray/icons and lock again. (this is what I am doing too)
For now, I am still trying to work out just how
ksystray works, and why
certain applications call it to open (and create those ghost icons), and
why other don't. When I get more information, I will post again.
There is functionality to create application with systray capabilities.
So if you want to know how it works look at ksystray.h

BTW it is unfortunate to read what happened with your bios pwd and so on.
