Internet will become ‘unusable’ by 2008

The Register: “The Internet “could become unusable as a means of communication” if something is
not done about email viruses, security firm MessageLabs warns.

The company which scans the email of corporate clients for viruses, predicts that
one in ten emails transmitted via the Internet will contain a virus by 2008, and as
many as one in two by 2013. This compares to one in every 300 emails containing
viruses the firm blocks at present.”
