Yes. We do get to notice such benefits, especially as many of us use a
system of downloaded (and uploaded) packets for offline processing. You
tend to get a bit ipssde-fof if you receive twenty or thirty Svens in a
download innit.


Only 20 or 30? I am down to around 50 from about 150-200 a day. Swens
that is.


Haven't seen one for - well, actually, I don't think I've seen one of
them at all - I think the rot was stopped before that particular beauty

Our ISP kills them as they arrive on the server.

I was getting twenty or thirty a day of the first worm, then a certain
boffin wrote a filter and zapped them on arrival.
