Please be aware that there is no later version of the MSDOS ARC utility than 5.12. Some bozo has hacked 5.12 so that it will eat the boot sector of a hard disk, and released it as 5.13. Be sure of what you're getting when you get it! The safest way is to get it from a friend, or from a bbs whose operator verifies all his files. As Paul Allen noted earlier, you can get it from nearly any IBM oriented bbs, and you can get a list of those from a computer store (or the kids who hang around them). It's probably THE most popular shareware program ever distributed and there's no sense reposting it here when it is so widely available every place else.
