結構大変みたいですね>カウント。統計的に計算するってのもあるみたいで1日25万台が感染してBot化しているという話もあるそうです。

Counting the infected computers is a much more arduous task. In January 2007, I reported on Vinton Cerf’s talk at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland and explained that he estimated 100 or 150 millions machines as infected represented over 10% of the PCs connected to the Internet. At the same time, some sources estimated less than 10 millions machines when others say they identify nearly 250000 new bots, or infected IPs each day.

今年はボットネットを使ったDDoSの予感がするそうです。

We can certainly predict an increase in DDoS attack will be a 2008 issue and, for sure, more and more botnet will be used in the field ; perhaps 40 or 50% of them.
