I do not understand wahat you are saying:
swen viruses i receive are of three flavours, mstly being 156 kB in size 
.... neve seen a 55kB one ..
anyway i got about 180 each day and i am very unhappy.
About showing in the lists: I use three addresses for lists, but oddly 
enough i receive about 180/day on one address, but only one each 
other day on the other two ...
I jist set my reader to leave in my [120 MB] box the messages above 
140 kB. This way I esclude most of the viruses, oince everuy thrre days 
i just browse the list and grab the one [or none] that is OK ... 
incidentallym ost of oversized messages even if not viral are usually 
worth the trascan ....
