Subject: IMLogic telling porkies about Yahoo

Theres a difference from capability to attack on Yahoo and attacks
actually happening. I have yet to see any active worms on Yahoo IM
network. Most of my honeypots are all bursting with phishing attempts
trying to get the user account, falling short of the worm claims.

You're aware of those worms by seeing them on your honeypots or have
you simply compiled that list from searching the internet?
