That MS patch and the worms and virus that are attached to it have been
going around and hitting a lot of people hard. Last week I was getting
about 300 a day. I thought that it was going to burn up my anti virus
program. I check my system several times a day to make sure none of
them are getting through so far so good.

It's hit me, too. It started with about 25 or 30 a day last week and it has
jumped up to the 250-300 a day range since Sunday. Roadrunner's scan
catches most of the viruses, but they deliver the scrubbed copy anyway in
the theory that it might be something you were expecting. That would let
you know to contact the sender. Norton has caught the few that made it past
Roadrunner's scan.

Found a good filter while working thru the Outlook Rules Wizard:
where my name is not in the To box
delete it
except where my name is in the Cc box

Since I set up that rule, 99% are going straight to the wastebasket.
