RE: Botnet contains 1.9 million infected computers
So it a case of lazy admins who don't want to patch. If they got off their duffs and kept their network up to date we wouldn't have this problem right now. But all hope isn't lost, at least some of the antivirus makers are working on detecting the infections so we can have a safer computing experience.
