Spider (Not the insect):
A program that automatically fetches Web pages. Spiders are used to feed pages to search engines. It's called a spider because it crawls over the Web. Another term for these programs is webcrawler.

Uh...wait a sec. Doesn't sound like what I was trying to say / remember. Maybe it was.
Hold on let me try it this way.

It was mentioned that a few users were downloading the whole MOY website to avoid having to go through which images they want to download.
They wanted every image of this site so they would download the whole thing.

admin2:
Spidering in peto's sense is people who use download programs to automatically download the whole site for their personal enjoyment (fapfapfapfap)
The thing about that is that it sky rockets the bandwidth. If more kept on doing that, MOY would have been terminated.

Did you get what I said Natsume?
