MSN Most Dangerous IM Client in 2007
MSN Messenger was the instant messaging client of choice for hackers, thieves and many types of malware in 2007.
The IM client received 45 percent of all malware threats -- more than double the amount any other service received, according to a report released yesterday by Foster City, Calif.-based security solution provider Facetime Communications. Yahoo received 20 percent, AOL Instant Messenger received 19 percent, and all other IM networks received 15 percent combined.
