This is after the fact, and it's also already being done, but not very
effectively. The people writing the virus sigs are much more capable
and apparently still aren't able to stop them. PDFs are also a
problem.

I'm just looking for something to supplement that effort.

Curiously, the pastebin has been removed, despite the captcha. Is this
something people have experienced before?
