If their customer is trying repeatedly to send "a bunch" of files that
trigger false positives on that rule, then yes, they're going to see
"tons" of them -- regardless of the number of hits in anyone else's logs.

Tons maybe a little exaggerated but like Kelson said the users keep retrying
cause they don't get any notification that it is getting blocked so the send
it again.  Removing the def from the cvd file is an option but would be
anoying to maintain over time.  I would really like to know why this is
happening and get it fixed from the source and not a work around that we'll
have to maintain.  (Trend, Symantic and Mcafee all said there wasn't
anything wrong with the file)  I even took the file converted it to ODF
format then back to Excel and it still gave me a false positvie.  I stripped
out he macros too and it still doesn't like it.  My hunch is that there is a
problem with the way that particular def works.
