The end of DNS-Changer - Securelist

The end of DNS-Changer - Securelist: FBI's “Operation Ghost Click” was discussed earlier by my colleague Kurt [Link: http://www.securelist.com/en/blog/208193404/DNSChanger_Cleaning_Up_4_Million_Infected_Hosts] and [Link: http://www.securelist.com/en/blog/208193491/Update_to_DNSChanger_Cleaning_Up_4_Million_Infected_Hosts] and now it comes to an end. Next Monday, 9th of July, at 06:00 (MEZ) the temporary DNS-servers setup by FBI will be shut down. But still there are still thousands of infected machines – one can wonder, what will happen to them?
