[Mimedefang] ClamAV's Worm/Trojan/Joke/W97M classifications

It appears that ClamAV's virus database attempts to classify malware by
prefixing the virus name.  However, many of the viruses don't have
prefixes and others are prefixed by W32 and other things.  Does anyone
handle different viruses differently?  i.e. discard worms and trojans, but
strip Word viruses?

Thanks,
Matt
