There's an item on the KDE menu for this. I'm at work now so can't check
exactly where, but one of the items near the bottom of the main menu -
Useful Links or something IIRC. It's on the second, or even thrid level
menu and the item is called something like ''File Manager (Superuser)''.
Selecting it pops up a dialogue asking for the root password.

Alternatively, on the Run dialogue there is an option (checkbox?) to run
as a different user.

HTH
