Well, as the group that made MailScanner, we take the presence of that line as a great compliment by the virus writer :) Aside: MailScanner (which is open source and free) is one of few gateway spam/virus detectors that can cater for those virii that forge email From: headers so that warnings do not erroneously go back to the forged sender.
