It's been awhile since I've seen that ..... Back when I was running
windows .... if the connect was slow I'd get that ..... or if there
was a problem with the connection.  sometimes it would take restarting
spider a couple times or rebooting a couple times or both!
Since I switched to Linux I haven't seen the problem.
