has anyone noticed that VNP performance is a drag lately?

hello, I just wanted to ask if anyone else is seeing this. Before last week, all the VPN's we manage were running great. Then, the storm of MS crap hit the net very heavy. Ever since then, our VPN performance has been much slower. We've checked all internal issues...all clean. My impression is that the ISP's are still dealing with getting rid of those worms/viruses. It is getting better - slowly! I've noticed the ping response times are getting better from last week. I saw times averages in the low 1,000's! Now we get around 300-500. We used to have average around low 100's.... Is anyone else experiencing this too? Just wondering.... Oskar
