With the number of viruses flying about today hitting windows, not running a virus scanner is begging for infection ;) There are even plenty of free online scanners like http://housecall.antivirus.com (Trend).

Even in that case, the user can still set a ban on *@*c* or *@*n* or *@*o* and get a majority of the domains quickly. (Anything containing c, n, o like net, com, org, co). That ban will also match a lot more than just the ends. I'm still not sure if that'd still b e a suitable solution. -- Valcor ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
