WRT: "May be a botnet is using Tor?"

Read the thread at
http://www.spambotsecurity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2095  The title
is
"Anyone else get hit by TOR-cloaked(?) botnet?"

Bot with Tor addresses hitting sites and attempting SQL injection have
been seen. I don't know how widespread it is.
