Go check out this article at Dark Reading.  Looks like this group is creating a botnet with a trojan that has a cracked version of Kaspersky AV to clean machines (except for itself, of course) to make sure it gets all the bandwidth it can to send out spam.  It is called the SpamThru trojan. 

This is crazy.
