Default Alleged Russian spam-lord hauled into US court

From http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/12...aster_charges/

Quote:
A Russian who allegedly at one time ran a network of compromised machines responsible for a third of global spam appeared in federal court in Wisconsin on Friday to deny the charges.

[snip]

Prosecutors allege that the Russian was responsible for pumping out a staggering 10 billion spam messages per day, touting penis pills and counterfeit goods using the infamous Mega-D botnet network.
