You can get the right number for each symbol from webdings.tma (look at 
the end of the file).

\definefontsynonym [Webdings] [file:Webdings.ttf]

\def\WebdingsSymbol#1{\getglyphstyled{Webdings}{\tochar{d:#1}}}

\startsymbolset[webdings]
     \definesymbol [spider] [\WebdingsSymbol{983044}]
     \definesymbol [web]    [\WebdingsSymbol{983045}]
     \definesymbol [cool]   [\WebdingsSymbol{983047}]
\stopsymbolset

\starttext
\symbol[webdings][spider]
\symbol[webdings][web]
\symbol[webdings][cool]
\stoptext
