I got the full email, attachment, headers, and all, and I would be
upset if my ISP filtered it for me. I guess if I were to actually
boot DOS to run the attachment I would have appreciated the scan, but
what are the odds of me booting DOS (or starting up a virtual machine)
to run an executable from a questionable source? I'd rather not have
my ISP filtering my email for me. It's my job to protect myself.

I think anyone clued enough to be interested in secure shell is not as
vulnerable as a computer illiterate. Hands up now, how many of you
ran that program?
What concerns me is wasting my time, bandwidth, and effort with
off-topic junk email. Which is what Brendan Choi sent.
