The first place I found Spyder was here: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPYDER which is an anti-aircraft system
based partly on the Python-5 mssile.

But presumably you mean:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/spyder

site is automatically imported by Python during startup.  It lets you
customize things in a global way before starting your particular
script.  And one of the things it does it to import sitecustomize

See this link:
http://docs.python.org/library/site.html

and also:

My guess is that something's wrong with your Spyder installation, and
you should check on their mailing list.

But the first thing you might do is to add -v as your error message
suggests.  For some reason Spyder is hiding 3/4 of your error.
