It is a self-sustaining system where tools that aid in fraud and theft can be purchased and the stolen information obtained by those tools can then be sold. The Symantec Report on the Underground Economy is now available for download. This report provides an analysis of the cybercrime activity in the underground economy observed by Symantec between July 1st 2007 and June 30th 2008 for underground economy servers and between July and September 2008 for software piracy. The report includes: * A discussion of some of the more notable groups involved * An examination of some of the major advertisers * An overview of the servers and channels that have been identified as hosts for trading * A snapshot of the software piracy using a file-sharing protocol in the public domain <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_lt_top_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/arrow_yel.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> Download Now! <http://symantecenterprise.rsys3.net/servlet/cc6?kPuJQSTRRQDVKlohuikhgxn hNQgmQJHVaVR> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_lt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_lt_top_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/arrow_yel.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> Download Now! <http://symantecenterprise.rsys3.net/servlet/cc6?kPuJQSTRRQDVKlohuikhgxn hNQgmQJHVaVR> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_lt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> New Symantec Report on the Underground Economy <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> PARTNERS <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> spacer<https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> spacer<https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> spacer<https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> spacer<https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> (c) 2008 Symantec Corporation <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_lt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_blk_rt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_wht_lt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/cnr_wht_rt_bot_10x10.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> <https://symantec.netmarcom.com/html/images/spacer.gif> To unsubscribe from the Symantec General Marketing Offer, please click here <http://symantecenterprise.rsys3.net/servlet/cc6?kPuJQSTRRQDVKlohuikhgxn hNQgmQJHVaVSVGuHptVKlohuikhgxnhNQgmQJH> .
