Dutch smash 100,000 strong zombie army
Well well well… So atleast I know that in the last 8 months of not doing ANYTHING regarding processing my residency permit application the Dutch gov has atleast been up some covert operations in the computer security underworld.
Dutch police have arrested three people for building a worldwide zombie network of more than 100,000 PCs used to launch internet attacks on companies and to hack into bank and Paypal accounts.
Heres the article at the register.
