This morning my disk space on the mail server almost run out, due to numerous e-mail messages sent by the Sobig.F worm. In addition, my spam filters stopped moving messages from inbox to the spam folder, because of insufficient disk space. I managed to clean up by removing some of the worm messages, and now there seems to be enough disk space for e-mail filtering to work again.

Sunspot.net writes about Mac OS and Mac OS X virus threats: "security experts estimate the number of Windows-specific viruses at about 70,000 [...] more than two years after its introduction, not a single Mac OS X-specific virus has yet appeared. [...] Still, a successful Mac OS virus attack could occur; total prevention is impossible, for a number of reasons." [Macsanomat]
