Yup. We had to shutdown all the computers yesterday. Was in a meeting 
discussing the dangers of hooking up laptops to our network, when one of 
our techs sticks his in the door and says we seem to be having a 
problem. I was only running ClamAV but it stopped all the Bagle variants 
hitting us through email.

Just for grins I ran ClamAV and BitDefender against the email archives 
and lots of email infected, but not detected because they were 
identified as Spam. Must think on this because I have email not cleaned 
up so people can release from Quarantine. Now we could be releasing 
infected emails.
