Web-Based Malware Infections Rise Rapidly

This article says that the number of web sites hosting malicious software has increased at an alarming rate. According to this, the number of infected sites is two times as much as previously estimated. At this rate, it won't be long before clicking on a web link will make you spontaneously combust.

More than 640,000 Web sites and about 5.8 million pages are infected with malware, according to Dasient, which was founded by former Googlers to offer services to help Web sites stay malware-free and off blacklists.
