No, my servers only flag spam, not viruses, and flag/reject about that
many an hour (on each server).

Yes, it's a virus. M$ doesn't e-mail patches. But given that each of
my mail servers sees them at the rate of 100+/day (to various users),
there are a _lot_ of gullible M$ users out there. That's a sustained
rate during the past two months, BTW. It was worse when it first
started.
Hmmm. Gullible M$ user. Sorry for the redundancy.
