Hi Dave,

please hard code some limits (eg. max 5 submissions per day). This will
help in case there's a bug in your app and it starts submitting all
files from a user's hard drive instead of selected ones ;-)

The name/e-mail address is a must be. The user should also be able to
provide a description which is very welcome and (very important!) be
able to mark the file either as 'not detected' or 'false positive',

Thanks,
