Was 2007 a good year?

Yes it was a wonderful year
Yes, but there is always room for improvement
Status quo
It was a challenge

Not seen these in my 'box yet, but did find some submitted to phishtank....heh.

So basically, what it amounts to now, is all previously infected machines are still infected - but they aren't/won't/can't be members of the botnet...? And the botmasters will need to re-start their whole process of re-infecting newbious users? hehe.

More details on the latest variant of Storm distribution are in the EU Spam Wiki
http://www.spamtrackers.eu/wiki/index.php?title=Storm#January_16
and the Chinese CISRT link
http://www.cisrt.org/enblog/read.php?222

This part of the Storm network does appear to be divorced from the bank phishing part.
