That's odd. 

I'm running Arachne 171UE01, straight "out-of-the-box" although I've
reset some of the configuration to reflect my preferences. AFAIK the
TELNET.APM is not installed unless it came as part of the basic package.

I clicked on the URL in your message and after the usual delays it came
up with no trouble at all.

Under the Options/Internet Settings, I have selected "Don't use FTP
Proxy Server". If you are set for something different, then this may be
the cause of your troubles, but that's just a guess on my part.
