Also note that while I don't care receiving those vbs things, it's quite 
annoying,
frustrating, ... to receive hundreds of messages saying a virus was found:)

That reminds me of something I've seen some weeks before:
a guy sent a mail to a lot of his contacts. that was probably a love
virus sending itself to all the guys contacts. the guy MTA found the
virus: that's good. but the reaction was sending a message to all
the recipients stating that they should ask the sender to resend
his message without the viurs!!!!  not only is this stupid and
illogical, but it gives to all the recipients the list of contacts of
the sender.
