Now that SoBig is really flooding the network, I've started to get flooded with good-intentioned servers letting me know that I've sent out viruses- Of course I didn't, but someone who has my email in their distribution list did it 'on my behalf'.
So, I added a blacklist feature to my KillSoBig.vbs file. If you're getting buried in autoresponders, this will mostly solve your problem. You will have to occasionally add new autoresponders to the script's blacklist, but that's better than getting 400+ stupid messages per day!
I've also removed all of the logic that had its own autoresponder code and all the unused logic. It's much more streamlined, but if you want any of the other features, you'll have to add them back yourself. The 3rd party downloads from MailEnable has some other nice MTA scripts:

Email me at johnw@allprosoftware.com if you want to try this out. I'll be sending it to MailEnable's admins shortly, but I thought I'd give my fellow ServerBeach users first crack.
If you're curious, here's the thread where I posted info about the original SoBig Killer:

And, as always- USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. No lifeguards are on duty.
