The fruitflies on IM where spread by the flyfruit alge, so there where no actual fruitflies on IM. But I think there was a substantial amount of infected seasnakes wich had mutated and no longer killed regular alge (Leeched on them instead and entered kill mode if someone attacked the alge).
This is one of the seasnakes I got in from one of EricL's sims (Think he had 3 running on IM)

After the flyfruit had spread to all the sims I no longer saw any of the original seasnakes pop in. And EricL locked his sims to prevent viruses infecing alge at some point, which is probably also why the infected bots evolved into leeching and defending the alge instead of eating everything in sight. But the high amount of bots also slowed down the sims a lot, so I don't think they ran that long. I was going for the 9000 bots on IM challenge, but I only saw seasnakes reach 7000 :'(
(Not sure if other bots on IM where infected aswell, I think I saw one called 000 which had been infected, but there weren't that many of them, and there where no mutations and only the dna from the fruitfly virus, so it could just as well have been someone running a test of some sorts, maybe making alge resistant to fruitflies or something).
