Botnet and Hiveputer
Both the Botnet and the Hiveputer are Regiments of computers with a hacking bonus of +0 that do coordinated hacks by request. The difference between them is that a hiveputer is a bunch of personal computers wired up for this purpose, while the botnet is a much larger collection of computers used by other people that devote a very small amount of resources to this purpose.
A Hiveputer is destroyed by simply finding the collection of computers and blowing them up.
A Botnet is destroyed by people running virus checkers. 1d10% of the botnet is lost per week.
It costs 15 points for every 10 hacker's-worth of computers in a Hiveputer, or 25 points for every 10 hacker's-worth for a Botnet.
