    I subscribe to an email list from www.insecure.org, as I'm sure several of us /.'ers do. Anyway, recently there was an article that summarized that according to the FBI, quite a lot of viruses, worms, and spam can supposedly be traced to organized crime. Apparently Eastern Europe seems to be a hub for this activity, according to that report.
