Might that often provide an indication of *credibility*? very few spammers
will be willing to invest in expensive hardware. They rely on the quick buck 
before content (or worm) 'fades away'...

The question is: will it be *ethical* to penalise virtual hosting? It was
questionable enough when Google filed a patent on benefiting sites based on
domain expiry...

Disruptive.
