    I was wondering if anyone knew a mod that would show the spiders on the who's online bit on phpbb. I've seen it before, but I can't find it on phpbb.com or phpbbmods.com

    Be careful with that MOD. I'm not sure it's the same one I used a while back (which was then in beta and reportedly was later "fixed") but if it is it blocked Googlebot and maybe the other bots as well - I noticed a drop in spidering first and wondered what was happening and then I started getting Google Alerts for my site showing an error page.

    Given that it's entirely cosmetic, you might want to think twice about adding it.
