Microsoft nukes Zeus malware from 275,000 Windows machines

I thought Wintel machines don't get these problems anymore? Isn't
that what some of the Winfaitful in here keep saying?

From the article:
"Microsoft is claiming major success at cleaning the notorious Zeus
crimeware trojan from infected Windows machines.

One week after adding detections into its malicious software removal
tool, Microsoft said it nuked Zeus (also called Zbot) 281,491 times
from 274,873 computers."

Is this one difficult to fight (there are more infections than
systems)? I guess I'll stick with the 'success-less' Mac

LOL!


Why, Steve, are you now laughing at all of your own posts... and
spamming multiple news groups?

LOL!
