Kwallet is easy to get rid of... If you want it to store passwords just
give it an empty password when it asks. It will give you a warning
about the security of an empty password... just accept it. From then on
it will automatically log into your password wallet. Of source doing
that provides no security for your passwords, it simply keeps it from
asking for a password for the wallet. If you don't want it to store
passwords, go into system settings -> Account Details -> KDE Wallet and
uncheck "Enable the KDE wallet subsystem"

As for the cachew, I suggest you just ignore it, or drag it below one of
your panels. It is possible to make it disappear, but you have to put
the system in immutable mode which will leave it totally unconfigurable.

As for icons moving around, I have never seen this before. The only
icons that I know of that might spontaneously move around are the tray
icons. And they have the possibility of moving because they are popping
in and out of existence depending on their status. You might be able to
stick their position a little better by going into the tray settings, in
the entries tab, and adjusting all the tray items to be some combination
of either shown all the time, or be hidden all the time. That should
keep anything from popping up, like the printer status or USB. Of
course that will also make your tray much larger than normal or have it
not show something when it occurs.

Hope that helps,
