This answer is in the archives, but here's a more complete one.

It depends.  If AUTORESPONSE_INCLUDE_SENDER_COPY = 2 (the default),
the confirmation request will be a multipart/mixed entity with two MIME
bodyparts:

        multipart/mixed
                text/plain (response text)
                message/rfc822 (copy of the sender's original message)

If the sender's original contains attachments, so will the
message/rfc822 bodypart, so long as the attachments don't exceed
CONFIRM_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE (50k by default).

Most virus attachments are larger than this, so in practice, the
answer is no.  If you find this isn't the case, you could lower
CONFIRM_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE so it's even less likely that the attachments
will be included.  Another option would be to set
AUTORESPONSE_INCLUDE_SENDER_COPY = 1
