There are probably a few "spider" programs out there that are free.  Why
reinvent the wheel?

I'm not recommending the above link, but it was the first one that popped up
on a google search for Java and Spider.

Good Luck,

I think you could something like:

1. Get yahoo's main page, 
2. Repeat
3. With an HTML parser determine all the page links ("A HREF ... " tags) 
4. Get the linked pages
5. For each page -> goto 2

It's something like a tree, and each pass represents a level, but be
carefull the tree expands arithmetically.

hope this helps
