I think this is KWrite trying to be 'helpful' and preloading itself for 
performance reasons.  IIRC KWrite is used as the built-in textfile 
viewer for KDE, so it gets used a lot.  To make it go away, try this:

Control Center
KDE Components
Service Manager
Find the box in the lower right where it says 'KWrite Daemon' and 
uncheck the 'use' box.  Then use the 'stop' button to stop the service.

I'm using SuSE, so YMMV.

HTH.
