I just went and did a "no connection" install....I think we can remove all the communication components from the standard Arachne package. They are, after all, mostly separate programs. Then we can remove all the pages that deal with "dialup" "ethernet" "packet drivers" and such, and substitute different pages that do not refer to any communication capability. This would not be deceitful, since all the communication components would not be there, anymore. The question is...just how REALLY technically knowledgeable are those foreign "checkers" going to be...? Will they just look on some list, see "Arachne - browser" and refused it, or will they actually look to see if it has communication capabilities..?? > The second problem is that nobody has yet configured an easily useable > HTML-GUI for a DOS database (I'm looking at DataPerfect, a free database > for DOS). This one can't have a quick answer. I haven't checked your links, yet, and it will take some time to digest, once I do. ......gregy -- This mail was sent by a user of Arachne - The Ultimate Internet Client
