  Subject: [THIN] Interesting read: Microsoft Malware report from Malicious 
Software removal tool


  Microsoft has released an interesting report on some results from their 
Malicious Software Removal tool.  There are some pretty shocking results of the 
amount of virii this thing has cleaned.  For example 4.4 million removals of 
Win32/Rbot, another interesting statistic..the tool cleaned one computer that 
had over 251 variants of malware. I can only imagine what that person was doing 
on the web. : )
