I didn't say I was going to blacklist them did I? I said they are already on
the blacklist of those anti Spam companies, and maybe, just maybe they would
like to know.

As has been noted previously, the Klez virus aliases
the originator's email address, so such blacklisting
is fruitless - you end up blacklisting the innocent
party and nothing is done to rid the virus infection.
In other words, W1XV did NOT originate the recent
"Look,my beautiful girlfriend" email to the list - his
address was stolen from the inbox of an infected
computer somewhere. So blacklisting W1XV is an
improper response.
