Uh, yeah it apparently does. According to the article, they identify 16,000 sites hosting malware a day. 320 of them are hosted on blogspot.com. That’s 320 different blogs that on blogspot A DAY with malware. According to the headline of that selfsame article, that’s the most found on any host.

This just means that there are thousands of other malware-hosting sites.

It’s their stat and their study. I assume they can draw their own conclusions with more than the two stats they provided in the article.

And they did: here’s the page and quote from Sophos directly: “Sophos has identified that the number one host for malware on the web is Blogger (Blogspot.com), which allows computer users to make their own websites easily at no charge. Hackers both set up malicious blogs on the service, and inject dangerous web links and content into innocent blogs in the form of comments. Blogspot.com accounts for 2 percent of all of the world’s malware hosted on the web.”

Sophos actually says"Blogger, owned by Google, is particularly problematic, says Sophos, with the blog site alone accounting for nearly 2 percent of all malware hosts." This does not make it the number one 1 host of malware. You can't be with just 2%! Nicole Price's last blog post..Green Gifts
