Yes, I have. It came in the archive package LSPPP101.ZIP so I
assume it is v1.01.

I was just stating the settings in the Options page "Preferences

It is an 8250/16450.
And I will definitely have WHAT troubles? Two minute freezes
after downloading 500-700 bytes? No, I can't believe that.
These delays occur _ONLY_ when I am using Arachne to download
HTML files under OpenDOS.
They do not occur when I am downloading other files, such as
JPEG, GIF, EXE, ZIP and TXT files under OpenDOS.
They do not occur when I am using TELIX to connect to the local
BBS under OpenDOS.
They do not occur _at all_ under MS-DOS.
So don't tell me that it is my UART that is causing the trouble
when the UART works perfectly for every other combination.
