Hi! Does anyone know how to block all those unwanted MS Security updates
that come with the attachments containing viruses? My McAfee Internet
Security blocks most of them at home, but what can I do on the Exchange
server at work?

Well first I hope you have A/V protecting that Exchange server? Yes?
You should.
But you can always turn on the ISA feature pack and use that to drop
them or the tool in this page

"Don't lose sight of security. Security is a state of being,
not a state of budget. He with the most firewalls still does
not win. Put down that honeypot and keep up to date on your
patches. Demand better security from vendors and hold them
responsible. Use what you have, and make sure you know how
to use it properly and effectively."

Good question. But if there is, how would it differentiate between =

coming in? I need to know the other ones, I'm tired of seeing these MS =

Any advice?
