Since you have done already all the necessary diagnostics
I guess the real hard work is already done by you! Finding
the therapy should be quite a bit easier;-) Should you feel
like doing also that I won't try to stop you, but you can
also leave it to me. The only problem is that I'm fighting
with Qt to do the right thing since several days and I can't
forsee when I'm done with beating it into submission. And
before I'm finished with that I probably won't have to time
(nor enough of whatever may be left of my patience;-) to
take a closer look at this browser issue...

               Thank you and best regards, Jens
