Dude -- this was done-to-death less than a fortnight ago when another 
subscriber made similar "complaints" because a virus that spoofed his 
address posted a copy of itself to the list.  One of the list 
maintainers then gave a detailed explanation of why belly-aching about 
viruses being sent to the the list will not produce any change in the 
list's configuration.  You should go read that (URL may wrap):

http://lists.netsys.com/pipermail/full-disclosure/2004-
March/019182.html

then either STFU or get off the list, as we are all sick of hearing 
about this and it seems pretty darn certain that yet another clueless 
whinge of the same sort will be similarly ignored by the list 
maintainers.
