As much as I would like this lawsuit to succeed I don't think this is going anywhere.
I once used a script that generated random email addresses to bog these harvester bots down and the site would get hit all day by these fucktards.
The first email I ever had , which I think I made back in 1994-1995 or so gets around 500 spam email everyday.
Good thing I'm now using gmail...their spam filter rocks.

Well, where do you think they connect to the zombie PC's from? Anywho as far as i know spammers with a clue stopped harvesting emails a couple years ago. I think you'll see these guys soon offer a pay email service or something similar and used this lawsuit for free advertising but who knows. All i know is that lawsuits never stopped spam in the past, and i doubt it will in the future.
