What is the difference between using VSPIDER that the regular CF tags for handling Verity searches?
Is there an advantage besides the granularity in options?

VSPIDER parses your site as a robot. Regular CF tags (CFINDEX) indexes the contents of the actual files. For example, VSPIDER loads the page as a browser would, whereas CFINDEX opens the CFM file and indexes the content including all source code.
