[Rich Tate]

It looks as though there is no slowdown in Malware creation as it multiplied fivefold in the first part of this year.

Malicious code that installs files such as Trojans, password stealers, keyboard loggers and other malware on users' systems registered a fivefold increase in the first half of 2007, according to research released by Microsoft at the RSA Security conference in London.
