Very much true about getting messages from your ISP about Klez. I work in a 
Windows-based office and we are well covered for stopping viri. Still, some 
days I will get 5-10 Klez-loaded emails that my Virus software stops. These 
are messages that make it through the ISP's mail server. Very annoying 
because it means there are still lots of people out there clueless to the 
fact they are infected.

Thankfully the Mac side of computing isn't so targeted. I hope that doesn't 
come to pass.
