This came up before when Konqueror didn't want to open a lot of pages and most bookmarks that were "*.htm" files; it kept trying to open them in a word processor. I think the problem went away when I did an update to Mandrake - maybe 9.1 - 9.2. However, browsing the Time Warner cable page, I found an interesting behavior: This link: http://www.twckc.com/services/lineups/schednet.asp opens just fine, but this one: http://www.twckc.com/services/rates/packRates.asp Konqueror wants to open in GMplayer. I don't find any file association for *.asp in Konqueror, KDE's file association menu, or GMplayer. Mozilla reports it as an unknown binary/application file and won't open it either. (Most likely this is bad coding by Time Warner, but it's still a weird way to handle things.)
