Klez usually sends mail in html with a real file and then the virus attached. Generally it appears to be 1500+ lines of mail. I was up to about 50 Klez messages a day! Once a Klez-filter was put in place, I'm down to about 15 spam messages per day. Not too bad, IMHO. -derek John Abreau <jabr at blu.org> writes: > Derek Atkins <warlord at MIT.EDU> writes: > > > Klez? The email virus that's been going around? > > I just looked it up on google.
