That's not quite what we had in mind.  We are lowering the price of the
server and limiting it to the local machine only.  To index other Web
servers (the remote spidering option) now costs extra.  The idea was just to
provide a lower entry price point.

If you are upgrading an earlier version, I think you should have received a
less limited spider license.
