Yeah, you are right... about the same problem with long window names.
Usualy I look into the cache with Norton Commander as this gives me date
and time which makes it possible to reconstruct the downloading.
Would be nice if Arachne was able to display date and time and not only
the size of a file in the cache or download directory.
The date and time data are in the file otherwise Norton cann't display
this data.
