Figures...

So 63% of US computers are not relaying malware, and for the place that invented the internet, it only spams 17.5%? I'd say those are good numbers.

Malicious web pages are likely from holes in web servers (likely running unpatched and compromised).

Still I think Sophos is just pandering its wares. Do you think so too? Studies showed that more web attacks will increase but email virus will decline. Sophos is saying email is on the increase.

I'm amazed at how many users don't know what BCC is, why they insist on sending to all their friends some stupid links, and don't understand to have a router (updated) and virus software (that isn't 6 months expired). Plus find it acceptable to go to sites they have no idea about nor like to click away. There is so much free anti-malware, antispyware and website that will check your pc.

Everyone should just buy a mac (sarcasm).
