I am not sure we mean the same kind of stuff when talking about
"viruses" on Tor. Since June 2010 we run Tor exits at more than 300
Mbps, lately more than a Gbit, and have never received a single
complaint about abuse that I would categorize as "virus".

And, yes, we want to publish more detailed stats about the amount and
class of abuse we see over our exits, but we're a bit understaffed and
could use some more volunteers to help out with things.
