Storm certainly served as inspiration to yet another growing botnet dubbed Mega-Dik. Speculations are afloat that the said botnet could be behind the recent spamming campaign that floods user inboxes with ads on male enhancements and replica watches.

These spammed messages have links to Mega-Dik.com. Trend Micro Senior Threat analyst Jamz Yaneza believes that the product MegaDik is a scam. Researchers are divided in their views regarding this said botnet. Marshal reports that Mega-Dik was responsible for more than a third of spammed messages in the past three months.
