Some (not all!) AV subsystems refer to viruses that propogate themselves via
e-mail as "worms" - e.g. "Worm.SCO".

So, does anyone know of any AV system where disabling notification to
senders of any received virus that contains the string "worm" would be the
*wrong* thing to do? Maybe some worms are still stupid enough to use the
actual real senders address - instead of faking it? Last thing I want is for
Q-S to be configured to notify sender, block an e-mail due to worm, and fail
to tell the sender - when that *was* the actual sender...
