Not having much joy trying to use arachni... but not giving up :)

I tried installing the experimental branch, but after a while when it's scanning it crashes, with about trillion error messages, starting with something like this:

```

```

I tried `git checkout master` and `rake install` again, but it seems like 0.4.1 stays installed and it doesn't want to switch back to 0.4.0.2 ... not sure whether it would make a difference though.

Checked my memory, and there's plenty free memory. Anything else I can share/send to try to troubleshoot this?
