Spam, worms, trojans, botnets, ddos attacks and all the useless related crap that Windows boxes love spewing out is what takes up the most bandwidth on the internet. At least half. Screw them and their false statistics. PS, how the heck does one tell the difference between zeros and O's on captchas? This is the most bullshit statistic if I ever did see one.

The data comes from PowerPoint presentations used to sell their products. The methodology of their "study" and the resulting data is not independantly verifiable. In a follow up email after a telephone interview with Mike Godwin, legal council for the EFF, Andrew Parker of CacheLogic stated: “Despite not feeling that our reports have been verified by 3rd parties. I would suggest that your statement surrounding ‘figures taken from marketing literature’ to be stretching the truth somewhat. I said I would not argue that the numbers had not been verified and would not constitute an academic weight study, and as such I would not present it as a complete study of P2P activity on a global basis. The figures presented are not marketing waffle and our ISPs would not participate if they felt this was a) a marketing exercise or b) that the data was inaccurate.” link: http://www.godwinslaw.org/weblog/archive/2005/04/29/my-interview-with-cachelogic I am not anonymous, I am Kent of http://k364.info Considering that CacheLogic sells “Routing and caching appliances focused on reducing the burden of P2P traffic” to ISPs, taking their data seriously seems a little misapplied.
