I'm a big fan of CLI tools and I had to learn the hard way
that Spider refuses HTTP clients if they don't provide a full
User-Agent: attribute. Which client do you use?
I wrote a simply HTTP proxy in perl to intercept client/server
and checked what a browser sent.
Same holds true for the EP HTTP server.
Clear violation of the HTTP RFC to force specific User-Agent: contents.

My home-brewn http client uses something like this:

$uaver="Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7a";
$useragent="Mozilla/5.0 ($uaver) Gecko/20040213 Firebird/0.8.0+";
$useragent= $opt_U if $opt_U;
$referrer = $opt_r if $opt_r;
$httplevel= $opt_L if $opt_L;
$method = $opt_M if $opt_M;
$PROTOCOL="HTTP";
$url=shift;

$HTTP="$method $url $PROTOCOL/$httplevel\
User-Agent: $useragent\
Referer: $referrer\
...";
$HTTP.="Authorization: Basic $encpw\n" if ($passwd);
$HTTP.="Proxy-Authorization: Basic $encppw\n" if ($proxypw);

Another idea:
do you have port_range configured? Check if Spider port lies within this
range.

Tschau...Thomas
