You should do it the other way, because if one of the modules entered en 
infinite loop (which is likely if you have one core at 100% with no IO) it 
is likely that it won't unload properly. It may not be in kded's list 
anymore, but still running loose in his thread.

So you should disable all kded modules (from systemsettings), then log off 
(or even restart to be sure no process is left running) then log back on. If 
you still get high CPU from kded then ths problem is in kded itself, if not 
you can start loading the modules one by one (waiting long enough between 
each) to identify which one will start eating the CPU.
