Shut 'em down . . .

. . . and let the abuse department sort 'em out.

Most ISPs have an AUP/TOS which specifically addresses this problem. But most are hesitant to enforce it because they are afraid to lose customers.

Well, do you really need a customer who is not in control of his/her own machine? A customer whose machine is spewing thousands of spam messages a day and is jeopardizing the ability of the rest of your customers to use the service as it was meant to be used? Do you really want a customer whose actions (or lack therof) is forcing other ISPs to blacklist you?

Shut 'em down immediately . . . and MAKE them secure their machine to regain their connectivity.

And it they don't secure it, terminate them . . . with extreme prejudice.
