Anyone know how I can get konqueror to start up with google.ca, instead
of this irritating "Konqueror: Conquer your desktop!" page that keeps
popping up? I changed the homepage setting, but when I start it, I
still get the irritating, practically an advertisement, cover page.

In <Settings/Configure Konqueror/Home URL> Place whatever URL you like, and
change it as often as you want. Or leave it blank.

Once started and at your google.ca address go into Settings menu Save view
profile web browsing making sure to check the include URL now when you start
it should go to the google page.

Settings >> Configure Konqueror

Change it and hit apply

Did you hit apply / save? You should not even need to restart Konqueror.
Just click on the home icon once you have applied your settings.

As for the advertisement since its a free open source product I don't
really see why its so annoying to you. Its not like someone is trying to
sell you something, you're looking at the default browser that you
(yourself) installed - lighten up
