Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Is there anyone using a webwam running dos?

I have discover that my web cam connecting to the usb port is  on.
I can see the light indicating it"s corectly connected.
It's only a question but all seem possible with the extraordinary dos 
so I ask to you this question.
And of course the best advantage of arachne runing Dos is that we don't
catch virus 
Good night to everybody
