As a non-arachnophobe, I don't find spiders of any kind to be cute. But I also don't find anything about their appearance or behaviour to be unpleasant or scary. They're just aesthetically unremarkable. Similar to, say, fish---I don't think most people will look at a fish and think either "ooh, so cute" or "weird alien thing, get it away from me", they just see a fish and don't really have any emotions about it.
