Is CF the wrong tools to use to build a spider program? I want to build a 
program which goes out from a designated starting point and logs 
information about the sites it comes across. In particular, I am looking to 
find sites that have a specific tag on them.

Lets say, for example I am looking to return a list of site's which use the 
<embed> tag and have flash content on their site. I also want to calculate 
how many flash movies they have across their domain/site.

Is this something CF could do? Would using CFHTTP and Regex be an 
inefficient way of doing this? Should I hire A C+ programmer??

If CF is suitable for this job, where would I start and are there any 
resources available? Thanx!
