The propagation of P2P worm covers large area and causes great damage. A dynamic quarantine protocol is designed to quarantine the suspicious host in the P2P system. Then a mathematical model of PWPQ is proposed which considering the dynamic process of peer joining and leaving. The effect of dynamic quarantine on active P2P worm is analyzed. Through stability analysis for PWPQ model, a key argument of infection-free stable point which affect the P2P worm propagation, the basic reproduction number, is deduced. Simulation results show that the propagation model of P2P worms can reflect the P2P worm behaviors and the performance of our model is significantly better than other models, in terms of decreasing the number of infected hosts and reducing the worm propagation speed. When the basic reproduction number is less than 1, infection-free stable point is global stability and the P2P worm are eliminated. The PWPQ model gives some way to control P2P worm break out and gives guidelines to P2P worm detection and defense.
