Probably it is better to make a > difference between stable and not-so-stable version. Quite correct. But in my opinion. And as you have seen from the messages to the list... This is the opinion of many other users. v1.71;UE01 is the most stable version ever. (bar none) We have not as-yet found so much as 1 duplicatable crash/lock-up which can be blamed on Arachne itself. Several can be blamed on incorrectly commented JS and several can be blamed on extremely long lines of HTML (1108 character lines are just about as stupid as you can get) :(( In-fact, the only 2 duplicatable crash/lock-ups the come to mind for which we have not found the exact cause are those at my.yahoo.com and mail.yahoo.com And I found a fix for the one at my.yahoo.com (which explains why some users have not had the same crash/lock-up) Here's how I fixed it and this is now possible.... http://www.angelfire.com/id/glenndoom/my-yahoo-fixed.htm 1) logged-in to my.yahoo.com using Linux Netscape. (a W9x browser or DosLynx might also do the job) 2) deleted EVERYTHING from the "default layout" 3) placed back onto the my.yahoo page only 3 items (DVD/videos releases, comics,headlines) Everything now works fine (no crashes/lock-ups with Arachne) I am still working on the problem over at mail.yahoo.com -- Glenn http://arachne.cz/ http://www.delorie.com/listserv/mime/ http://www.angelfire.com/id/glenndoom/download.htm http://www.thispagecannotbedisplayed.com/
