from "Thomas Tabler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

       Can anyone help me by stripping off
   the stupid %20% symbols inserted by
   this terrible Winblows program, whatever
   it is, and tell me how this has to
   do with Javascript?  This was sent to
   me by an AOL user, who apparently is
   trying to promote some "spy" software
   for home or business use.  Anyone, my
   thanks goes out to you in advance!
   And God bless Michael Polak for
   making Arachne!
(end of quote)

All those %20 symbols are meant to be spaces, ASCII 32 decimal = 20 hex.
Internet URLs are not allowed to have any embedded spaces, so where a space is
desired, %20 is substituted.  % followed by two hex digits can also be used to
substitute for other characters that would not be permitted in an Internet URL.

That attachment looks like a very deviously coded Javascript!
