Your problem is with all web pages except with K-Meleon page, this is very strange.
Are you tried if you have this problem with others browsers like Firefox, IE, ...?

@ mrbig
As desga2 mentioned, that is very strange.:s Perhaps the other cached pages have some how become corrupt. Perhaps clearing the cache's (Edit > Preferences > Cache > click on both "Clear" buttons,) will be helpful.

this is either a corrupted profile or incompatible remnant kmeleon files from previous versions.
first delete existing profile(backup your bookmarks.html first), create a new profile and check if everything is working normally...
..if not, do a clean install: uninstall kmeleon and delete all kmeleon files manually if you have to, install kmeleon 1.5.1 in a new folder.

Are you tried with a new profile? Profile can be corrupted.
Are you tried to reinstall K-Meleon 1.5.X? This can be caused by some corrupted file.

If anyone gets this infection, here is a great page that tells you how to get rid of it. I have successfully removed this on two machines that I have worked on. Here is the link

There are several variants of this and are listed on the page.
