US computers still the source of most malware

[HURST]

-{ Quote: "The ISP shutdowns of 2008 may have cut the overall amount of spam flooding across the Internet, but the largest share of the world's malware is still being hosted right here in the United States. According to the most recent Sophos report, the US hosts 37 percent of all malware sites followed by China (27.7 percent) and Russia (9.1 percent). Despite the well-publicized Atrivo and McColo cutoffs, the US share of total malware rose from 23.4 percent in 2007 to 37 percent in 2008, while China's share dropped by nearly 50 percent, from 51.4 to 27.7 percent." }-
