Lucky you. The vulnerability of Windows machines is a good business. Just an example (not browser hijacking but trojan infection): the latest issue of the German IT magazine c't has an investigative report on the cooperation between virus authors and spammers. c't researched a UK guy who sold IP address lists of tens of thousands infected machines to spammers, with a charge of $28,000/month. The uncovering of that particular network is still "work in progress" at Scotland Yard.
