Links is not a spider -- neither version is.

You have to enter the links into the database through some other means -- either by using the admin feature or having your visitors add their own sites. LinkSQL also has a program to parse the Open Directory database into your setup.

What Links is is exactly what it says -- it's a link-management system. It allows you to enter the links in just about any format you'd like -- with as much commentary as you'd like -- then output them in a format you like using templates.

My feeling is if you don't understand the basics of what this product is, or can do, then you should do a bit more investigation on what it takes to run a "links" site -- whether it's a spidered site, or a directory site.
