Zombie Report By ISP

twitter writes "Information Week has a summary of a report by Prolexic detailing Zombie activity by ISP, country and population statistics. AOL, the largest provider, had the most zombies but lower rates than others. Fourth largest Earthlink was not in the top 20. The information is gathered from hundreds of customer sites." From the article: "Weinstein went on to say that Prolexic's numbers were actually good news for AOL. 'It's a demonstration that the tools we provide are keeping members safe. Our very aggressive actions -- we provide anti-virus, anti-spyware, and firewall services to our users -- make them measurably safer than those on other ISPs.'"

    Underlines or no underlines, you're still a fucking idiot. Consider throwing the computer away and picking up a hobby you're better at, such as professional drooling or involuntary muscle movement. If you can't figure out how to underline the links, the computer should be forcefully removed from you and incarceration in a facility other than mom's basement should be given serious consideration. Christ. All that fucktardity and still you feel compelled to post on Slashdot. Oh well, at least you're more attentive to quality than the editors.
