Spiders are programs used by search engines such as google. They snoop through all the links they can find, recording where they've been.

Ahhhhhhhhhh, *it dawns upon me*, and there was me thinking there were arachnids creeping sinisterly around the 'Downs. Doh! It's a good job there are no programs called 'cats' or these 'spiders' would be missing some of their legs and living in fear... I presume this is a kind of pun on the 'web' then? Hmm, I understand the meaning behind a 'trojan', but surely something which burrows around the depths of the web should be a 'mole' or something. Or am I being dim again?
