Just a heads up FYI - I'm seeing a huge increase in malicious attachments coming into our mail server this last few days - generally pretending to be traffic tickets with a .exe file.  We normally get a few every day and then but it's not even 10am and I've got 70+ sitting in the quarantine folder today - most of them are addressed to the honeypot.

Either somebody likes our honeypot or else the bot builders are back to work.

Regards,
Edmund Cramp
