I'm still being overwhelmed with incoming email containing viruses.
This started last week Thursday.

Thanks to a server in Russia I've finally identified the non-Swen
incoming virus emails as the Exploit.IFrame.FileDownload virus.

Here's what the Russian server said:

Sending Domain: inves.ru
Server: Exim 3.34 #1 (Debian)
Anti-Virus Program: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 4.0.0
Identified Virus: Exploit.IFrame.FileDownload

and here's what I then found about this virus via Google:

Question: For those of you who are also getting this stuff, are you
getting just Swen (which looks like a Microsoft update), just Exploit
(which looks like an email bounceback), or both?
