Just what we need...
Yet another way for someone to infect our computers. I think it is about time for ISPs and other Internet authorities tighten security on the internet itself. Why should the entire responsibility be laid at the feet of the user (most of which wouldn't know about internet security is it bit them in the you-know-where). If the ISP sees a bunch of spam traffic coming from someone on its network, cut them off. How hard is that? I think ISPs care more about their bottom line than about helping their customers secure their internet connection.
