Subject: Proposal: how to notify owners of compromised PC's

Sorry if this was suggested before.

If major sites like Google, MSN etc. would query rapid DSL and dialup
blacklists, they could visually inform the visitor that their PC is
listed (+ inform them what to do, direct them to online AV etc).

Spamcop.net and cbl.abuseat.org come into mind. If Bill would invest
in those, INDEED we may be able to stop most of the viral and spam 
lunacy.
