Russian malware site values PC infections by country
Interesting to read that MessageLabs has revealed a Russkie malware infections site that offers wodges of e-cash depending on how many PCs - and their location- hackers can infect with its spyware.
The spyware infections are reported to be a doddle to engineer on legitimate sites, using a single line of code to route hapless punters onto auto-malware loading pages,
What's really interesting, however, isn't that the Installscash site offers US$100 per '000 infected computers in Australia, but the fact that this is twice the price for US infected computers and four times the level payable for Dutch infected computers.
