After all these years, I'm still surprised a consortium of ISP's 
haven't figured out a way to do something a-la Packet Fence for their 
clients where - whenever an infected machine is detected after logging 
in, that machine is thrown into say a VLAN with instructions on how to 
clean their machines before they're allowed to go further and stay 
online.
This has been commercially available for quite some time so it would be 
only up to the providers to implement it.
