Teacher Convicted in Porn Case
Substitute Teacher's Porn Conviction Sparks Tech Debate

WINDHAM, Conn. Feb 13, 2007 (AP)— Until recently, Julie Amero says,
she lived the quiet life of a small-town substitute teacher, with
little knowledge of computers and even less about porn.

Now she is in the middle of a criminal case that hinges on the
intricacies of both, and it could put her behind bars for up to 40
years.

She was convicted last month of exposing seventh-grade students to
pornography on her classroom computer. She contended the images were
inadvertently thrust onto the screen by pornographers' unseen spyware
and adware programs.
