It seems to be hard getting a lid on this virus. Its been going strong for a while now and doesn't seem to be slowing down ! http://www.technewsworld.com/story/47608.html
I was waiting to see when that happens as well. Its staying power has been pretty impressive. http://www.gameshout.com/news/122005/article1807.htm
one of the biggest problems I think is that clamAV hasn't updated to contain it - that's one of the most used AV solutions in web hosting, and I think that accounts for a huge number of mailservers around the globe... but that's my "opinion" - not based on any facts...
In some parts of the world maybe. That's why a map would be good like some other Av's provide. Perhaps using Threat Sense data.
I read somewhere that Cdns rank right up there when it comes to internet use. Having something like virus radar for our area would be nice. Other AVs haven't downgraded Sober yet... its been consistent.
