    Botnet! When did that happen?

    Is it just me, but I thought this Botnet thing was just harmless prototype stuff

    arrested six Estonians behind a five-year-old scheme that generated upwards of $14 million in fraudulent Internet advertising revenue
    FBI takes down DNS Changer botnet; aided $14 million click fraud scheme

    Now you need to check your machine with the FBI, I feel some computing is going very fast in the wrong direction.

    When I watched SyFi like Terminator, iRobot etc. I thought we could stop it from happening, now I'm not so sure
