Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

To be honest it's been awhile since I used Arachne for anything
except email, but on my low powered DOS computer I have multitasking set
to N because it seems to work better that way on pages with lots
of images--fewer glitches with downloading images if you just go
one at a time.  But maybe that's been fixed with more current editions.
I'm not even sure what version I have now without firing up the old
DOS machine.
