Is your computer a zombie on a "botnet"
A year and a half ago, we introduced you to the newly discovered attack on the Internet known as a "botnet".
As time has gone on, the use of botnets to spread viruses, malware and especially spam has grown to epidemic proportions.
The ways in which "bot herders" infect unsuspecting Internet surfers has become much more sophisticated and the ability for botnet agents to hide from anti-virus and anti-spyware software is progressing as well.
Listen in as the Data Doctors give you the complete picture of the botnet problem as well as tips for avoiding them and how to tell if your computer might currently be part of one.
