>> reporter: police say they've identified 67 different roads for this new program. be warned. they'll no longer announce times and locations for those cameras. turning to our weather now it's quiet tonight but we could be in for a foggy monday morning. meteorologist chuck bell is in storm center 4 with a look ahead. >> hey there, jim. good evening, everybody. after a weekend filled with an awful lot of cloud cover out there but not much in the way of rain. especially today. as we get into the early parts of the week, our rain chances may be sneaking back up once again. 63 in downtown washington. still 70 out in the mountains of petersburg, west virginia. 59 into st. mary's county. nothing showing up on radar other than the ground cover. overnight tonight, clouds continue to thicken. fog very likely by early morning. could be patchy thick fog in spots. and humidity, a lot of it, heading north early this week. we'll talk about what that means coming up. tonight the search is on for a driver who hit a man and left

him on a range of issues. now to decision 2012. tonight the white house says vice president joe biden's comments on "meet the press" today were not an endorsement for same-sex marriage. president obama does not publicly support gay marriage but says his position is evolving. this morning the vice president commented on the sentiment that americans are increasingly showing support for gay marriage. >> i am absolutely comfortable with the fact that men marrying men, women marry women and heterosexual men and women marrying -- they're entitled to the same exact rights, all the civil rights, all the civil liberties. i don't see much of a distinction beyond that. >> on the republican side of the race, mitt romney will hold a town hall meeting in ohio tomorrow. he'll be speaking at a cleveland area metal stamp factory. a virginia man has been charged with threatening to kill president obama. christopher hecker sent e-mails to various radio stations.

what have i to fear? >> "the avengers." it's what we call ourselves. sort of like a team. earth's mightiest heroes type thing. >> "the avengers" stormed into fear this weekend and set a new north american box office record. the film raked in more than $200 million in its debut. that beats the old record of $169 million set by last year's "harry potter" finale. the avengers featured a star-studded cast playing mar vick comic book heroes such as thor, captain america and iron man. the focus at churchill downs has shifted from the kentucky derby to a death investigation. police say the body of a 48-year-old man was found inside a barn early this morning. we're told he worked at churchill downs but it's still unclear what his exact job was. the man's body was found about 12 hours after i'll have another won the derby. there will be an autopsy tomorrow. prince harry is coming to

washington tomorrow. he'll be in town to accept an award from the atlantic council for his work with wounded service members. the prince supports a number of service related charities, including walking with the wounded. it's a british group that retrains and re-educates them to help return to civilian lives. now spam isome your inbox full of junk ads? if so, you and our reporter lisa parker have a lot in common. she did something you should never do to get rid of it. here's the cautionary tale. >> reporter: this is my dog gloria. she gets around just fine without a harness, though somebody in cyberspace sure thinks she needs one. maybe they're the same people who send me ads for free pizza. cigars. and a sugar daddy millionaire to marry. the free pizza notwithstanding, most of the e-mails are just ads for completely useless junk and that's brand new.

after years of a clear and clean mac account, something changed. a spammer got my e-mail. he told two friends and they told two friends and so on and, well, there goes the inbox. to get rid of all of this junk, my instinct to click on unsubscribe is apparently a bad one. >> don't unsubscribe. never, ever. >> reporter: take it from steve. >> i would say by lunchtime, i would have gone through 100 e-mails. >> reporter: a few years back in his efforts to unsubscribe he loaded, as his name, two words we cannot repeat here. >> i was so frustrated. for the first name i put [ bleep ]. >> for the second i put you. was he unsubscribed? and the next day i got e-mail, dear -- and when that part of the story was published, more spammers found him. >> oh, thousands, yes. they were coming in. you could watch them pop in after each other. >> wrong instinct.

>> reporter: mark knows about the guys on the other side of scam e-mails. he's a former hacker. >> it's about taking a product that everybody says is secure and showing people that it's not. >> reporter: once profiled on reality tv. the days of invading high-level websites behind him, now he's on the other side as a digital security expert. who tells clients to stay away from this tempting word. >> as soon as you hit on subscribe you are essentially saying x, y, z e-mail address is actually active. there's actually somebody there. they were guessing, fill out this line and the guesswork is over. >> reality. that's usually an indicator to increase the level of things they are sending to you. and sometimes we've even seen where when you click on subscribe it will take you to a website and the website actually will try to perform an attack against your computer. >> reporter: they have sneaky ways to get through spam filters. >> most of the advertisement itself is just in one large image. and what that does is makes it harder for a spam filter to

process. >> reporter: burying text on top of pictures or hiding words you'd see in a legit e-mail. all a predatory twist to the feature that was supposed to help. the federal can spam act mandates marketers offer a way out of unwanted e-mails. legitimate companies take it seriously. >> don't hit unsubscribe if you don't know who it's from. but the fly by nighters who often have no connection to the products they hide behind are just looking for confirmation. >> they don't know there's an active being behind that e-mail address until you respond in some fashion. and what you do, validate the e-mail, it's ripe for the selling. >> reporter: so by trying to get off these lists, we just get in deeper. >> i learned myleson. >> reporter: just as steve learned with his now former e-mail address. >> clicking unsubscribe ratcheted everything up another notch. >> who knew. that was lisa parker reporting. she says she knows all about that next notch. for this report, she clicked on

unsubscribe for two weeks worth of spam and the effect is just as our experts predicted, more junk than ever. spam accounts for 80% of all e-mail traffic. so what should we do? best is to choose the mark as junk option if your provider gives it to you. if not, delete and move on. now we know. let's move on to monday's weather. these clouds moving out of here? >> wouldn't know. these clouds are inbound clouds coming back in on that easterly breeze out there. the marine layer coming right back in with the heating of the daytime sun we were able to burn the clouds away and thin them out just a bit. now theatsun has gone down, the moisture is winning out once again. clouds will continue to lower and thicken during the overnight hours. there's a picture from our city camera view right there. you can already see the bottom of the cloud deck inching its way down. when i got to work early this morning, pre-6:00 a.m., you couldn't see the top of the monument. i think that will be the case

again on your monday morning. be ready for a bit of a gloomy start to your monday. but, just like today, the sunshine will start to work its magic. and the wind will start to come back around to the south tomorrow. those two factors means we'll get a peak or two of sunshine on your monday. right now, 63. winds now southeast at 10 miles per hour. that's the beginning of the good news change that comes in from a sunshine perspective. current temperatures, 61. gaithersburg and rockville. 64 toward dale city and springfield. 60 in beautiful calvert county. 60 at andrews air force base. clouds and fog for sure first thing in the morning. wake-up temperatures mostly in the upper 50s. mostly cloudy lunch hour with temperatures closing in on 70. i think we'll see peaks of sunshine tomorrow afternoon and climb into the low, perhaps even mid-70s by tomorrow afternoon if we get a little extra sunshine. no rain out there for now. we'll be off to, although a foggy start, a rain-free start. but the rain showers are not so,

so far away. pouring down rain across much of lower michigan. thunderstorms right through the downtown loop of chicago. thunderstorms for st. louis and kansas city and down across the deep south. that is the humidity down south that will be coming our way on tuesday. so here's the way it's breaking down. the moist onshore flow that kept the clouds in today. that starts to break down late night into early tomorrow morning. so foggy start but eventually that southeast wind becomes ever more southerly during the day tomorrow. sunny breaks, spot showers tomorrow, well out to the west. but a real substantial chance for rain showers with some thunderstorms coming in as we get towards tuesday afternoon and tuesday night as warmer and much more humid air comes our way. so overnight, clouds and fog on the increase. a bit of a damp start. can't rule out patchy drizzle first thing in the morning. start-off temperatures in the 50s. for tomorrow, after that foeg start, peaks of sunshine. highs tomorrow, upper 60s in the high spots to low and mid-70s. a noticeably humid day coming up

on tuesday with the thunderstorm chances rolling in tuesday afternoon. wednesday looks like a very beneficial day from a rainfall perspective. and i've had to move the drop. i've had to extend the drop to the first part of the day on thursday. i still think thursday afternoon, friday on into next weekend is looking a-okay. >> we can handle that. still to come, tv viewers knew him as guber. tonight, a look at the legacy of actor george lindsey. plus, a bold thief drives his war into a store. the problem he had while trying to get ra, way with his loot. and a new page written in the legend of bryce harper. you have to see it to believe y[ male announcer ] are youve paying more and more for cable

phillies avoid that sweep, 9-3 over the nats. they've won eight of their last nine. the nationals have now this year. not bad. crazy game in boston. o's going for the sweep. birds up 5-1. bases loaded for will middlebrook. his first big league homer is a grand slam off of tommy hunter. i'm sure he wants that ball for keepsake. that ties the game at five. so welcome to the big leagues, young man. look at that. in the 16th inning, that's the first baseman for the orioles pitching in extra innings. >> look at that. >> and mike aviles doubles. watch this throw from adam jones. relays to j.j. hardy who guns it to the plate. tags out marlon byrd. now we're going to 17 innings. so look who is on the mound for the sox. mcdonald who is an outfielder but that's what happens when you put an outfielder on the mound. he gives up a three-run blast.
