I have the same problem. I noticed that you can't also access the task bar preferences from the small button immediate preferences. Simply nothing happens! But the task bar preferences can de accessed from the global kicker preferences (using the same small button but browsing under panel->preferences) .
The exact same problem happens to me. According to a KDE developer it's a Redhat problem.
yes, it's a bug in our kdebase and kdenetwork. It's fixed in 3.0.4-1 or newer.
