The Rustock botnet - as it is known - mysteriously stopped sending spam e-mails in early December, resulting in a massive decline in spam.

But according to security firm NetWitness, it restarted activity early on 10 January.

On 10 January alone it is expected to have sent out :eek: 67 billion junk e-mails :eek:
