-Chatting is the hot new venue for virus and malware authors. A new study says that malicious attacks over IM networks are up almost 80 percent compared to last year.
-
-Akonix, which just [released the statistics][1] over the weekend is in the business of developing IM "cleaning" services so you might want to take the numbers with a grain of salt, but still, according to Akonix's survey there have been 226 exploits for IM networks this year, which is just over one a day.
-
-Compare that with last year's numbers and there's no doubt that IM is finally starting to attract the kind of attacks that other networks have suffered for years.
-
-Akonix also says that older peer-to-peer networks, such as Kazaa and eDonkey, are increasing beset by malware. The company found 32 attacks just in the month of July.
-
-With system admins spending so much time and effort clamping down large e-mail networks, it makes sense that hackers would move on to the thus-far soft underbellies of IM and P2P. 
-
-As with everything else in the online world, make sure you trust your IM contacts before clicking a link or downloading any files sent over IM.
