Europe Home to Majority of Zombies

Posted by samzenpus on from the stop-the-spam dept.

Rei writes "According to a recent CipherTrust study, the majority of Zombie PCs reside not in the US or China, but in Europe. Of the European zombies, 2/3 were either in Germany, France, or Britain. The results were released with the announcement of CipherTrust's new ZombieMeter. As a response to previous reports of high zombie activity, the London Action Plan launched Operation Spam Zombies in cooperation with numerous governments around the world."

    Call in Shaun of the Dead!

    Ed: Any zombies out there?
    Shaun: Don't say that!
    Ed: What?
    Shaun: The "zed" word. Don't say it!
    Ed: Well... are they any?
    Shaun: I don't see any. Maybe it's not as bad as all that.
    Shaun: Oh, no wait, there they are.

    Man. If you could go back in time to 1980 and tell everyone that in 25 years, European governments would be spearheading an initiative called "Operation Spam Zombies", and that this name was not in any way meant to be humorous, the looks on peoples faces would be priceless.
