Iain, This is known as the "RunawayDownloadLoop" bug...and is a well know feature of 1.70r3....it is-being/has-been fixed for the next version... > sometimes if a menu box (I think thats what its called) is maybe > too large then it will display but you can't select anything from > it.

Maybe this is caused by some javascript involved on that page, in the selection functions....or...maybe it requires a more advanced set of CSS functions than Arachne now supports.
