According to an article from last week, Windows zombie spewage alone (SPAM, not
DDOS) costs the economy over $100,000,000,000 per year. Yes, that's right. Add
the DDOS, the maintenance work, the emotional impact and the long hours and
you're already talking about trillions...

Will Bill take the bill?
