Ipswitch can't do anything about it.  It's a form of DoS attack; it can 
only really be lessened by your upstream.  The virus connects to web 
servers, and sends about a dozen different HTTP requests to try to break in 
to the web server.  These servers are connecting to your server, but since 
you have IMail answering port 80 (rather than the default 8383, which the 
virus likely won't find), IMail gets hit.
