RE: IRC Statistics

My only thought would be to contact symantec about that one... daunting
task, espicially for the top networks. EFnet alone is a little
uncomprehendable.

Subject: IRC Statistics



Hello all

I was wondering if anyone new of a good source to find statistics on the
number of viruses / trojans that travel through, or utilize IRC and IM
technology.  Preferably I would like to find something that has it
broken down by year so that I can do some trending, but just the data
would be good and I can do the trending myself if need-be.  If anyone
could let me know I would appreciate it.

Thanks
Nick
