What insect was this?

Question

tonight while i was on the computer i saw this arachnid. it was about 2.5cm long (4 if you count the antennas). it was about 0.5 cm thick. its head was black and round (i think it was his head). his body was also round a bit bigger then his head and it was kinda of a yellowish green and then behind his body he had like this big ball(just a bit bigger then his head). atached to that were these claw-like things that scorpions have but they were small and thin they were about half a cm long. im not sure how many legs it had because i squished it but i think it was either 4 or 6. they were an orange brown complexion.please if you happen to have a link of the picture tell me.

Answer 4

Sounds like an earwig to me, the pincers at the end of the abdomen would be the defining characteristic.  Google image search "earwig" and see what you get.

Also, arachnid refer to spiders and the like, not insects and they don't have antennae
