I visited your forum and signed up. I downloaded your list and will try it later.
I'm still not sure what the problem is. I found that as long as I uploaded the stock file from the 3.8.8 update and manually added spiders by editing the file using sftp (using Transmit's editor) it works as it should. I haven't tried uploading yours yet, but I will later today, probably, and let you know what happens.
