"Spam King" Robert Soloway was sentenced to nearly four years in prison today. News reports say the Seattle man was apologetic for being a "nuisance."
Soloway pleaded guilty in March to mail fraud, e-mail fraud and tax evasion. Prosecutors say he used networks of compromised computers to send tens of millions of junk e-mails to advertise Web sites -- hosted on at least 50 domains -- from which he sold his product and services.
