 *
 * Provides information about I/O (Internet, etc.) settings chosen/set

 * KProtocolManager has a heap of static functions that allows only read

 * transfer resumption, timeout and user-agent related settings.
 *
 * The information provided by this class is generic enough to be applicable
 * to any application that makes use of KDE's IO sub-system.  Note that this
 * mean the proxy, timeout etc. settings are saved in a separate user-specific
 * config file and not in the config file of the application.
