With all the technology to catch/stop spam/virus/etc., how come it's not
possible to backtrack to these "s__heads" that send this stuff out? Then we
could block them or even throw 'em in the can!

Mandate to your users that Zip files will be stripped out, regardless.
Tell
them to have senders rename to ".Zap" ".z_p" or some such common theme.
In
this day and age there really isn't any excuse for any business user to be
irresponsible about their web traffic. If their Sys Admin is doing their
job they are telling their users best practice AND ensuring their
compliance.

I think the software, manufactures the virus notifications to legitimize
itself :-)
Just kidding, I noticed the same thing when we installed ours 6 months
ago, we probably get hit with 10-100 attacks a day.
Of course they do not catch the scams we have been receiving. Zip files
sent by our Non-existent "Staff" or Management Group" to our users
urging them to take some sort of action.

I just set up a new mail server with virus scanning. It blows me away
how
many viruses have been coming in. I feel good knowing they are getting
trapped now.

I just strip out all attachments now and open up the doors when my users
tell me something is coming. I'm thinking about just setting up a
specific
account out on the internet just for attachment mail. A least then I
can
review and forward. We've missed all the infections but I had at least
7
interventions last week from users letting their systems go unprotected.
(the owner, husbands ex, husbands daughter, owners son had 7 all by
himself.
Though for a second there Mike I thought you and I needed to chat.

It didn't come from my servers:
Received: from unknown (HELO egroups.com) (67.38.17.134)
X-eGroups-Remote-IP: 67.38.17.134
Is not the IP routing of the internet e-mail header from the mail server
at
V-S.
Tracing that IP over the internet gave me this information:
adsl-67-38-17-134.dsl.sfldmi.ameritech.net
Looks like someone out there has a virus..........
If the above IP address belongs to you, you might want to update your
virus
software and scan your computers........
Mike
P.S. I just love these new address spoofing e-mail viruses. I ended up
turning off the auto notify sender of virus on our anti-virus software
because it didn't make any sense to notify the sender of a virus when it
really wasn't them who is infected or sent it in the first place. I
wish
others would do the same because I get 1-2 calls a day now from my users
who
get concerned when they receive one of these types of messages from
someone
else's e-mail server/anti-virus software and I have to assure them that
the
original virus/message didn't come from them and their pc is not
infected.
