Univerze v Ljubljani *did* have a Slovene-English dictionary, containing
70,000 words. I don't know what happened to it, it seems to be gone. Since i
can't find the dictionary, i can't translate a request to them to ask where it
is
so i can translate the request for it.... err.... or something.

Hi Gerardo
The .si is like a .com but it is a domain for slovenian web sites like in
england .co.uk. Maybe your browser doun't support .si domains?

I checked further. This seems to be a browser problem. I was using MSIE
5.01, then upgraded to 5.5 with same results. However, Netscape 4.74 had no
trouble at all. I checked the Institut Jozef Stefan pages
(http://www.ijs.si/), and they were absolutely standard HTML 4.0
Transitional (i.e. basic XHTML), nothing Netscape-specific in them, nothing
that MSIE couldn't handle. <Sigh>
NB: Quite interesting site they have at IJS.

In search for removed pages, you might go to The Internet Archive
(http://www.archive.org/). It's free, but you have to be accepted as a
legitimate researcher. As for KIC-1, www.northernlight.com brought me 103
items (search string just 'KIC-1', no frills). Google found 174. The results
included http://www.kicchemicals.com/12hydroxyc18.htm (1,2 Hydroxy Stearic
Acid) and http://www.kicchemicals.com/14bdo.htm (1,4-Butanediol). And no,
they don't include the formulae. So much for industrial espionage. Or am I
Brandariz, Gerardo Brandariz?
Good luck. Or whatever it takes.
