I wish whoever tries it luck. I had a couple of goes at installing the 
V3 from the Japanese site and it always ended up with a blank screen. 
Maybe there is more to it than running the install batch file :( On the
other hand, if anybody does succeed, I'd be interested in finding out
what it takes.

This one does install OK and it works pretty well too (as a viewer at 
least, although the inability of passing a filename is a downer), but so 
far Arachne still rules.
