- Well, it looks like there is
more, amray is making good on their threats by emailing me virus infected
files, hoping I'm stupid enough to open one (they're really not bright
over there at amray, are they?)
- If you're comfortable doing business with a company
that operates so, well, good luck!

Isnt that outrageous? Why, I ought to notify someone about this, like their hosting company's abuse reporting system:
Parsing input: www.amray.ca
host www.amray.ca (checking ip) = 24.77.24.244
host 24.77.24.244 = ns.amray.ca (cached) Routing details for 24.77.24.244 [refresh/show] Cached whois for 24.77.24.244 : internet.abuse@sjrb.ca

Which is exactly what I did, yet somehow they manage to pass the buck and avoid any responsibility to take action against their abusive, yet paying, customer...

They got a full unmodified header from me, but what they're really saying is "Go away! We dont want to be bothered!"
My conclusion remains unchanged, avoid anything to do with amray, you'll be glad you did!
Any company that actively engages in virus attacks is one you might want to steer clear of, let my account here serve as warning to everyone.
