Disconnect them

Send them an email and tell them what they need to do in order to get reconnected.

My way...

I say that if the ISP notices a user is acting as a spam/virus relay then they should be notified via WRITTEN letter, and via telephone, not e-mail as that could get lost. Also, a telephone call or letter can be recorded/documented for proof that the ISP made an attempt to contact the person. If the letter/call is not responded to within 30 days the customers account would be locked down. Their name/address would then go on a "ISP Blacklist" and they would not be able to get service until the have proof of anti-virus/firewall software.

How you going to get an email when you have no connection?
.

I think there should be warnings, it's the users responsibility to keep there machines free of virus's. They wouldn't have viruses in the first place if they weren't idiots.

That's what written snail mail letters are for.

All this manages to accomplish is to allow the spew to continue for 30 or more days. Shut 'em down IMMEDIATELY . . . and I guarantee the customer WILL contact the ISP.

Mail I meant mail. I was thinking mail and typed email lol. Ohh the digital age we live in.

Come to think of it, its been more than 2 years since I actually mailed a personal email through the post office./

Yeah, if only they figure out how to convert matter into a digital signal, you wont ever have to use regular mail for anything (packages,etc).
