Howdy -

I recently responded to a thread on a local LUG mailing list where a guy
wanted to report a virus as spam.  I have always thought that using a
spam tool to fight viruses was wrong, and I said so.  He asked why, and
basically my response was "use the right tool for the job," as in use a
virus tool for viruses, and use a spam tool for spam.

What is the "conventional wisdom" on this list?  Should viruses be
reported as spam?  If so, why?  If not, why not?

Thanks!
Thomas
