Anyone that can be given a random piece of malware and put it to some
sort of coherent (and malicious) use is someone who has enough
knowledge that they wouldn't be asking for malware examples in the
first place.

please, i know you've been here long enough to see people with malicious
intent ask for malware... it's not often that they're bold/stupid enough
to admit their true malicious intentions, but it does happen...

but to play to your argument, i suppose you think all malicious people
use search engines instead of asking directly... what might a search
engine turn up? why how about usenet posts with links to malware samples...

plus, malicious activity is only half of what i was warning about...
