yep...we saw this starting last Tuesday. The extra load seems to have come from zombie PCs, probably due to a recent spate of viruses.
We're down from about a tenfold increase on 11/16 and 11/17 to about a 3-fold increase (by 11/20). Upping CMDSPACE and SNIFFER to hold weights, and some other minor tweaks, cut down significantly on the spam that made it through...upping our catch rates from 99% to between 99.5% and 99.9%, depending on the day.
