I find it kind of odd that noone has come up with a 'RBL' for bots...
ISPs could easily receive routes via BGP from "some trusted source" that has NULL routes for all of the 'infected' hosts which are attacking people..
A few dozen honeypots and you would quickly have a large list of infected hosts in which to ignore entirely.
Vint Cerf recently estimated that one-fourth of the computers in the world had such an infection... Are you prepared to handled a list bigger than internet BGP routers already deal with?
