AMERICA ONLINE INC said it has won three lawsuits brought against junk e-mailers as part of its effort to protect American Online members from unwanted junk e-mail. The company said it was awarded undisclosed but "substantial" monetary damages in each of the cases. It said in a statement that the court applied federal and state computer fraud statutes recognizing that existing computer fraud statutes apply to the transmission of falsified e-mail. America Online has also filed nine new lawsuits in five states - California, New York, Iowa, Florida and Virginia targeting porn-spammers, get-rich-quick schemers and sellers of spamming software.
