I think that is it, do the links in the messages go to the virus rather than the normal attachment method to avoid the virus scanners?

You are probably seeing the "German sober" virus - which sends out a
huge volume of spam pointing at various sites --- mostly concerned
with WW2.

That one has proved to be quite prolific.

Not only that - but outscatter from it and complaints about it with
copies of the message are also quite high right now.

Think this is it?
