Somewhat ironic in that the bots more than likely cost more money [to maintain on-network] than to clear the infected computers.

You are right. But during the yearly budget process, if the Net Security dept can not DOCUMENT the revenues that are lost thru the problem, then they don't get the budget money. It takes a very savvy and financially aware Security Dept Director to learn how to document what is happening. Unfortunately, my experience is that they are usually sharp technically, but are not often very good at financials and corporate politics.
