I agree with Gordon, the markings do look similar to this spotting: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/120...

There are some variations in coloration, but I suspect this is a Bold Jumper (Phidippus audax). See http://bugguide.net/node/view/1993/bgima... for more information. I'd be interested in hearing whether you agree or not.
