You try to remove it/kill it, it will fire out thousands of spider eggs, which will hatch and turn your car into a spider house on wheels

sellotape round the glass and the housing and you'll suffocate him.

not sure of the lung capacity of a spider, but it might take a while...

I'm watching you from inside the mirror housing - so stop picking your nose!

I bet he just sits there laughing at you!

Its a bit like Sea Trout at night when you cant catch one but they keep jumping around your feet. You can almost hear the giggles.

In the Wing Mirror - pah that's nothing

I've got one running around on my computer screen

Only a tiny, tiny thing but it's bloody annoying and I hope it doesn't have a big family.

Just like that screen saver thing with what looks like a spider on the screen but is actually a clever bit of software.

Mine is real though. It seems to come out when I go into Outlook Express

But most of the suggestions on this thread aren't ideal for a screen

There is only one thing you can do. Give it a name and make friends. He might be quite a nice fellow when you get to know him!

He is bound to be thinking in a similar way about you. As ever you can only "enter a dialogue" and come to a satisfactory compromise with appropriate safeguards on each side!
