Prior to a month ago I had never received more than about 1 virus every two
weeks. However, my personal mailbox has received about 40 virus attachments
regarding a "Microsoft Security Update" each day. Since I only receive 10-15
legitimate e-mails per day, I am now receiving 400% virus's. I would
estimate that in the last month, I have received 1000-1500 viruses.

ok, I find this just ridiculous. In checking my mail server logs, my
mail server says it has flagged exactly 9170 emails as spam in the
"past 7 days", which translates to 60.02% of my received messages.
Does this seem extraordinarily high?! Does anyone else have logs they
can compare this to? I just find it hard to believe that I receive
that much spam. Luckily the mail server deletes these messages before
reaching my Inbox, so I don't have anything to compare the logs to. I
don't know.....
