This shouldn't happen. What can happen is that no one has arp.library open
and it gets expunged because some task asked for a lot of memory. (When I
run DPaint is expunges arp.library). The only other possibility I can think
of is that you have several versions of commands that use arp.library and
they request different versions of the library. (Checking the version on 
disk each time).
