L.D. and Michael P.,
I just "looked" at ARACHNE.PCK using DR.COM and could not see *any*
"vga.something" or even "vga" in it. In fact, it is not a text file
AFAICT. It appears that ARACHNE.PCK contains the url's of *some* of the
sites that I visited or some of the online searches that I did using online
search engines.
Michael, did you *really* mean to refer to ARACHNE.PCK?

I was curious, so went to see what was in my arachne.pck file. I had a
bit of trouble, since when viewed as text by Arachne it was one single
long line; trying to edit with Arachne gave the famous "long line blank
screen." So I went to my personal editor, and found that the lines were
too long for it also, and it didn't matter anyway cuz I couldn't find a
first string that said VGA or VGA.something.
If I remember correctly, that file is supposedly created when we set up
Arachne. Should it have lists of html sites on the web I've visited???
I'll save what I've got to a backup, in case it changes again, and if
you want to take a look at it Michael, I'll send it to you.
Someone ... can I just eliminate arachne.pck and start over, or what??
Maybe all the apparent trash in there could be causing some of my
problems??
l.d.
