So the spam was booted under US control, so called government junk to read the world's computers. By doing this, they even did not know that they go bancruptcy. Now Bush leaving many such spam-trojan-intelligence services shut down. In parallel microsoft has tremendous update service now, perhaps to undo some bush updates. Good article thanks
