MessageLabs Intelligence data reveals that, in an announcement that will probably come as no shock to anyone who actually uses the Internet, the average spam level for the year managed to hit 81.2 percent. Perhaps a little more surprisingly, especially given the number of security vendor warnings throughout 2008, malware levels only managed to average out at 0.7 percent or just 1 in 143.8 messages.
