4 - I'll guess that like spiders, they have 8 legs. I did however, see on a documentary that they also have 2 little arms with which they feed themselves; so it might be counted as 10 legs

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
