I am doing the same and seeing the same results. I am not yet running
Declude.

However, I have had 301 today. None before today. And none on my Exchange
server which is the company mail. Only on Imail which we use for the e-mail
we provide our groups.

Could this be a false postive? Some type of interaction between Norton
<->Imail <-> KWM ?
