Actually, there's a very large ISP in Canada (Sympatico) that shuts down customers if it detects that they are sending out viruses. You don't get your connectivity back until you have proven your machine is clean. This, IMO, is a very responsible thing to do. However, it can only be undertaken by the actual ISP used by the offending computers. By the time mail has passed to a second ISP, the second ISP has no standing to intervene.
