Hi

I had the same problem , until i realized my mistake,

I just left the DXcluster (spider) as it was default, the copied 
listeners.pm to the correct place and told
listeners.pm to listen on Port 8000, then i also made a entry in my 
firewall for the same.

Realising that i had made the mistake was the best thing , as it taught 
me more about the perl program.
