No.  Not unless, of course, you want to write one that runs on an IBM
mainframe under VM, and then get a job at MIT and convince your boss to
let you install it.  Should only take 15 years or so.

A much simpler solution would be for all Windows users to take the basic
precaution of using antivurus software, and NOT RUNNING UNSOLICITED
EXECUTABLES rceived via email.  This was an old virus sent as a .BAT file,
there's really no reason anyone should have been fooled.  Virus scanning
on the current list server simply isn't going to happen.
