 FOUND IT!!!!

On line #333

<IMG alt="Moo!" src="../images//titles/console/officeutility.gif"><br>
(the // is causing the crash  ^^)

Here's the work-around.
1) use Cntrl+leftclick or Cntrl+Enter on this link
   http://linux.tucows.com/conhtml/off_utilities.html
2) after the D/L is complete, Alt+E to the DOS prompt and use a text
   editor to change line #333 to.....
<IMG alt="Moo!" src="../images/titles/console/officeutility.gif"><br>
(single / ____________________^)

3) save the changed file and "exit" the DOS prompt back into Arachne
4) link to http://linux.tucows.com/conhtml/off_utilities.html
   (this time without the Cntrl key held down)
