botnet

<security >

A large number of hijacked computers controlled by a botmaster via the Internet. Some botnets have been estimated to include hundreds of thousands of computers. Botnets are sometimes rented out, sometimes for as little as 4 cents per machine. The machines are recruited via a virus (e.g. sent by e-mail), a drive-by download or a worm.
