bzs: ok, this botnet was used in a DoS attack but I think it
underscores the general theme that they exist, are dangerous,
numbers of PCs involved (20,000 in this case), and becoming

It also underscores why "block port 25" won't solve the zombie
problem, "block port 25" is a delusion, unless it's a temporary
step in a strategy to find and clean (multi-) infected systems.
