Of course they can. When code red (or was it nimda) struck, my network connection speed went through the floor. In effect, it is a DDoS attack. These worms affect the entire net, regardless of what OS you're running, and the sooner we get rid of them the better. And let us all hold hands and pray that noone is ever foolish enough to write a mail client for linux with scripting abilities á la outlook. //Anders On Wednesday 28 November 2001 16:15, Arthur H.

hi all,
in hindsight of the current outlook worm, and the frequency in that these worms arise, i want to block any mail to my mailserver that comes from any ms software. currently im using qmail on suse 6.4. (yo, i know 6.4 is old, but it runs fine, so why update ? ;-) does anyone have experience how to do so ?? since im sure the time between new worms will get shorter and shorter, this is my "last solution" on my server for that.
greets,
chris
