| Based on a hardened Linux kernel, the Mailgate 6500 protects
| corporate systems from e-mail-borne threats with features such as
| Virus Outbreak Protection, which uses pattern detection to identify new
| virus attacks even before antivirus companies release signatures, the
| company says. The appliance also blocks 99% of spam coming across
| e-mail channels in multiple languages.

| Four-fifths of spam now emanates from computers contaminated with
| Trojan horse infections, according to a study by network management
| firm Sandvine out this week. Trojans and worms with backdoor components
| uch as Migmaf and SoBig have turned infected Windows PCs into drones in
| vast networks of compromised zombie PCs.
