Great rules :)

My dictionary didn't have the word "abberant" in it (or anything resembling
it). Please remember that not all on the list are native English speakers.
In any case, the facts are these:
1. You can obviously have more than 256 items in the cache (directory)
2. Glenn and me can not have more than 256 (and remember that everything
works well for Glenn <G>)
Now why is it like this?
I haven't changed arachne.cfg much, only the way Arachne looks (using a
"windows" scrollbar for instance).
As a side note I have never been forced to use chkdsk to clean up any files
(except after forcing Arachne to crash).

I'm begining to doubt my sanity all on my own here ;-)

Yes, this is very interesting indeed.
