I am trying the same thing, except to get it to run, I had to delete 
the 'Arachnid.prefs' and 'Bookmarks' files. Now, I get it to run, open 
a new web window, type in an address, but, I get Failed error 2 or 10, 
no web page. Even my own HTTP File Server pages don't open. They are 
strictly text. I'm having better luck with Contiki, so, for now I will 
stick with that until there is more info on Arachnid.PR3. 

Wish David Schmidt would write a web browser for GS/OS.  Hear me David?
