Yep, i'd agree that's pretty sickening.

But, the one thing that is worse than all the spam and viruses put 
together, is bloody VIRUS SCANNER BOUNCES!  I've lost count of how many 
helpdesk jobs I've been assigned (and I'm level 2/3 support, I'd hate to 
see what level 1 support is like!) because somebody's email address was 
spoofed and they are receiving virus bounces.

It is staggering how much viruses and spam cost business.  I wonder if 
all those "cost estimates" of spam and viruses include the time that 
support personnel waste?
