Plucker: Help needed with spidering

Hi,
I have been having trouble with spidering the following website, http://southseas.nla.gov.au/refs/falc/contents.html
At first I had several filters on, and couldn't get past the first page. For the purposes of testing, I removed all the filters, set max depth to 2, and still could not get past the first page. Here is the progress text:


---------------------------------------------------------------------

Done!

If anyone could possibly point out what have i been doing wrong, I'd be much obliged.


UPD: Well, I have succeeded in spidering the site after downloading sunrise XP, with the minor setback that sunrise turned out to be a sneaky son of a bitch, having its regexp filters defaulted to "exclude", resulting in me trying to download the entire internet for an hour (I got about 18% done, according to the progress bar). Thus, the problem ceased to be, but another problem arose before me - the problem of thread removal - in solving which I, sadly, failed.
