Actually there are no poisonous spiders.....
all spiders are venomous!
The record for the most deadly venom goes to the Brazilian wandering spider, but the most deaths attributed to spider bites probably goes to the Australian Funnel web spider
The Black widow, actually is not that fatal to humans, many people obviously still think so, but the majority of deaths occur to the very old and the very young, not to healthy individuals
here are some photos:

Brazilian wandering spider. Altho Its a Urban legend that the Daddy long leg is the most poisonous, but that is not true.

I think it is the Brown Recluse - though I have heard the Daddy Longleg is very poisonous as well - the just don't have a big enough mouth to bite anyone with.

the Daddy long legs. I thought everybody knows that. There mouths are so small they cannot bite you but they are the deadliest.
