Yes, this is a known problem. There's little we can do to fix it (anyone
else that's up to rewriting command.com is welcome to <g>). The problem is
that the command line is too long. I therefor suggest the following to
avoid it as much as possible:

1. Keep your temp directory at drive:\temp
2. Have Arachne in a directory such as drive:\arachne (I add .version to
them since I have a few installed)
3. Do not change your cache directory (actually none of the directories)
into an exact location (unless for some reason something else goes wrong
and this would fix it).
4. Don't try to access files "far away" (I can't install my apms in
m:\backup\dos\internet\arachne\plugins\*.apm, but there's nothing that can
be done about it).
