America Online on Tuesday said it is filing five lawsuits against individuals and companies that are allegedly purveying bulk unsolicited e-mail, or spam, to its members.

That is so ironic
AOL blatantly advertises every opportunity they have, and while it (should) be a profitable business proposition meanwhile AOL is winning $ in litigation and trying to portrait themselves in a positive spin to the general public
Both ends against the middle and they still lose $???
But I do like the new set of coasters AOL puts in my postal mail box every month or so

"The lawsuits come as AOL struggles to offset a slump in its dial-up subscriber base and advertising and contend with federal probes into its accounting practices.
As part of its turnaround efforts, AOL has stepped up efforts to keep its subscribers happy by reducing spam and curtailing pop-up ads, for example. AOL typically blocks 1.5 billion spam e-mails daily on its Internet service."
