# I don't believe
spiders have blood, do they?
They have some kind of fluid, which fills their exoskeleton, and that's why, when you kill em, their legs all curl up, cos there's no pressure....or something

# Spot on.
They have no circulatory system and simply absorb oxygen through their spirocles(sp?).

*edit* Not sure about the leg curling bit, but it sounds reasonable.

# well...
spiders move their legs by pumping blood in and out of them so they extend and move arond. So...when they have no more blood their legs curl up.
