A company representing Internet users in more than 100 countries is
expected to file a lawsuit in Virginia on Thursday seeking the identity of
individuals responsible for harvesting millions of e-mail addresses on
behalf of spammers.

The suit will be filed in U.S. District Court in Alexandria on behalf of
Project Honey Pot, a service of Unspam Technologies LLC, a Utah-based
anti-spam company that consults with private companies and government
agencies.

The lead attorney on the case, Jon Praed of the Arlington, Va.-based
Internet Law Group, has represented America Online and Verizon Online in
successful cases against junk e-mailers. Praed said the group hopes to
follow the trail from the people doing the harvesting of e-mail addresses
to the actual spammers.
