Thanks for the hint. It was the fixed systems fonts. I *had* already
messed around with all of the colors and nothing seemed to be controlling
that part of the image. BTW, our server was down for about a week, so my
subscription was canceled (I assume because of too many refused emails).
I was not able to visit the Arachne web site, so I didn't even know a new
version had come out. BTW: what is Arachne Quick Chat? I have not
heard of this before.
