High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Waledac, also known by its aliases Waled and Waledpak, was a botnet mostly involved in e-mail spam. In March 2010 the botnet was taken down by Microsoft. Before its eventual take down the Waledac botnet consisted of an estimated 70,000-90,000 computers infected with the "Waledac" computer worm. The botnet itself was capable of sending about 1.5 billion spam messages a day, or about 1% of the total global spam volume.
