Hi All,
       One of Windoze basic faults is accumulation of
"dead" files. As you already know, this is because of
the complexity of Wndz file writing patterns coupled
with "general protection faults" and other errors which
leave lost files who knows where? This makes debugging
a treacherous task and wastes disk space with "dead"
files. By writing all temp files to a specific directory
which is cleared when the program is exited helps prevent
accumulation of "dead" files and makes debugging easier.
I think we can all agree that any directory Arachne
deletes should belong exclusively to Arachne.

    Eric

P.S. Do you know anyone who likes to deal with 
     Wndz registry?
