Installing KDE/Konqueror on MS Windows?

I really like KDE, especially the fast and neat Konqueror browser with its KHTML engine, however at my workplace I'm forced to use Windows, so I have to use FireFox which I'm not too fond of. Recently when I'm checking through Wikipedia I found this page

https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/e…of_web_browsers

which says Konqueror is released fully functional and stable on Windows. As a big fan of KDE and Konqueror I'm really happy to hear this, however after searching around I can't find anything more about it. There are some mentioning of compiling KDE/Konqueror with Qt Windows, but nothing on how to do it. So I wonder if someone here knows if Konqueror is indeed available for Windows (not emulation like qemu or cygwin, etc.) And if yes, what's the steps to install it? Thanks!

That's probably intended for KDE 4, which is not released yet. KDE 4 should run on Unix like systems, Windows and Mac.
