Enforcing blocking of vulnerable attachments is really a backstop for the inadequacies of the AV scanning VM (and now Goggle/Postini) already do.

We use Postini at work and have had one or two viruses get through (the fast changing types). In recent times they have advised turning on file blocking, which for their corporate service is configurable down to an individual file type/user level. I would not expect VM to allow that level of configuration to home users though.
