[Dxspider-support] Spider continues to freeze and/or restart on its own

[David Spoelstra]

So have I.  It didn't worry me because I did it in the early morning and
not on weekends and mine was only down for a minute or two if it froze or
rebooted so it didn't matter.

I'll let everyone know what happens.  Mike, please do the same!
