Yonatan Bokovza pointed out that I should look at port 111 on lo0.
After denying those packets KDE did start up fine again.
But the ADSL connection from the ISP still sucks, so I guess I'll
change ISP. To many disconnections, even though I use a program called
lfConnectionKeeper to login every 5th minute, to keep the connection
alive.
Thanks for the help anyway!
Best regards,
Paul
