here's a stupid question...

[purplepshn2004]

what is the difference between, spiders, guests and users???  I'm logged on, so does that make me a spider or a user?? LOL... curious minds want to know (me anyway)

No such thing as a stupid question unless I'm in a rush.  You're a user since you are signed on this site.  Guests are people who haven't signed on or joined.  Heck I have spiders, daddy-long-legs, all over my house.

LOL Annette,

Ok, thought I was a user, figured people looking that haven't joined yet are guests, spiders, I don't like...but who's a spider on here, ...

spiders in the house, yep, like them?? NOPE!!!

And I understand that spiders are robot programs sent out by various things like Google to search the web, check out sites, record data and then return home to update their data base.

Thanks Mike,

Curiosity finally got the best of me...

Sean told me "Spiders" are a compliment.  It means we are making waves.

Sounds like they should be called Carpenter Ants instead

Thanks for asking the question. I had always wondered what a spider was also. Now other people and myself know the answer.  Way to go.
