A couple things, first F-Prot and declude on your mail server would not
block the virus, since if I read your message right is linked to a website
and not sent as an attachment.  I can think of a couple options for this
though.  First, you could setup a rule in imail to delete or forward to an
admin any messages that have that subject.  Another option if you are
running content filtering software on your internet connect would be to
block that particular website.  If you really want to get creative you can
also block the ip address for that site on a router or firewall access list
(currently the ip for that site is 66.216.74.58.  Just be aware if you block
the ip address of that server and it later changes your acl will no longer
apply, the same thing with the message subject blocking, if it changes your
filters will not longer work.
