The big problem is that new virus signatures get detected daily. Most
of us choose to block virii by signature. I don't know of anyone
offering a daily update service as open-source.
Another way to do it is to convert ALL executable attachments to text
files; a few mail servers do it this way. That way the recipient
decides whether or not to change it back and run it.
At least it won't run automatically.
