That's what I often ask about you, Greg.

I've never found any damaged Arachne files except right after a crash.

Whenever I run SCANDISK just to check if anything might be damaged, it
finds nothing.

If I run SCANDISK after a crash it always finds damaged files. Now
there may be various possible explanations for the crashes. (modem
problem, hardware problem, ISP problem, sunspots, gremlins, a voodoo
hex, maybe even an already damaged file) It doesn't matter.

What matters to me is that I can readily fix the problem with SCANDISK and
be on my way. I just don't have any curiosity about what is causing
this very occasional problem. I can fix it in a minute or two and
that's that. I could spend hours trying to figure out what's
causing the problem and never get to the bottom of it; so why bother?
