What book is the diminutive spider familiar for a wizard from? I'm building an Arachnomancer from DotUD and wanted to get that instead of something that didn't fit as well. I saw where that familiar can give you a +3 Spellcraft check, which would be a good boon after having to get 4 CC ranks in climb.

the "+3 Spellcraft" familiar is a Butterfly (Dragon Magazine) not a Spider. To get it you must first take a caterpillar familiar.

You get it after your caterpillar familar changes into one when you are 5th level.

Hairy Spider Familiar (Monsters of Faerun) grants nothing.

Spider Familiar (Dragon Magazine) grants +3 to Sleight of Hand checks, and may be Evoker Only.

Also, if Improved Familiar is OK, then there are:
Spider Swarm (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/swarm.htm#spiderSwarm) (Dragon #329) Diminutive Vermin (Swarm), level 3+
Watchspider (City of Splendors: Waterdeep) Medium Magical Beast, level 3+
Mercurial Spider (Dragon #341) Tiny Construct, level 7+
