I think they are justified in telling a sender, "The attached file you sent my user contains a virus." This can be a service to the sender. Otherwise useful and "real" attached files may well be contaminated by secretly inserted malicious code that the sender isn't aware of. Where the protection programs are annoying, I agree, is when their notification to a supposed sender has been triggered by a worm - a file whose only purpose and existence is to make trouble and which may be wantonly hijacking address books. -- John W.
