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 ....
