Behind the flood of emails to your inbox is a group of people known as spammers. A new book looks into the mindset of these kings of spam and why they do what they do. It also looks at the people who do battle with spammers and why it's so hard to put them out of business. Laura's guest is Brian McWilliams, Business and Technology Reporter who writes for Wired News, Salon.com, and O'Reilly Network.
