On internet forums, when a thread that has been inactive for months, sometimes even years, receives a new response and becomes active again. The term can refer to:

1) the resurrected thread itself, and/or
2) the act of posting in a thread and thereby reactivating it.
1) Wow, this thread's from 2003. We got a zombie!
2) I know this is an old thread, but I zombied it because it might be worth a read by some of the newer users.

"Corpses! Lumbering, rotting cadavers! What contrivance
could have wrought this...this...this abomination?!?!
Diseased science...?? Blasphemous occult rituals? How can
something so...so dead, yet be so alive?!?! And hungry..!
They lust for flesh...Human flesh...and feast upon all the
sweetbreads a man has to offer!!" ~ Maximillian Roivas (Eternal Darkness)

Former humans whom have either succumbed to extreme stupidity or have been bitten by one who has. Highly contagious the most obvious signs of infection are lack of awareness of other drivers when driving on the highway, complete and utter bull falling from their lips on a consistant basis, and most importantly any long term employee who lacks even the smallest clue as to how to perform their job duties.
The zombie manager in operations has completely infected the staff.

Something that people argue about the speed of the infected one. Zombies that run fast, like in Left 4 Dead, Counter Strike: Zombie Mod (whatever), and Resident Evil, are usually something that have an extent of the infection. Slow zombies are usually the dead corpse reanimated, due to radiation or summonings in movies.
