[bt-devel] Bugfix in BT 1.6.4 for KDE3

Hi there,

I just fixed a very nasty bug. It caused BT to eat up all system resources 
during file download. FYI:

-               while (!finishedDownload) {
-                       KApplication::kApplication()->processEvents(1);
-                       //   qWarning("FTP: Copy not yet finished");
-                       if (term) {
-                               if (job) {
-                                       job->kill(false); 
-                               }
-                       }

The problematic part is the processEvents(1), which will only interrupt the 
loop for 1 millisecond. But the loop is just there for active waiting. I set 
that value to 200ms and voilá, downloads are much faster and save system 
resources.

@Joachim: could you please prepare a 1.6.4a with this change? I believe we 
also had some translation updates.
