Looks like SPAM which uses Sober.Q... There will be a whole bunch of this SPAM again on the 27th according to those who took a closer look at the source code. No one knows yet who sent it and what you can do is just update your virus-signatures and run full scans

We use message labs for now until we upgrade to a 2003 environment and it catches 99% i would say of all spam with few false positives.

I would say that perhaps you should increase your thresholds in IMF if the spam is getting through to the clients inbox or alter the settings on the outlook 2003 jumk mail filter.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By sphbecker · Posted

      Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.

      Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.

      All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....

      It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.
