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.
