Default detecting WMV viruses

I frequently see search results claiming that there's 100+ computers sharing a file with the exact filename as my search parameter ... oh, and it's 100KB .WMV file. It's obviously a virus! I've tried Block Host but the search results still appear. Sometimes, the name will have underscores, e.g. if I search for "Edit I get a response offering Edit .wmv"

Can't LW automatically detect this stuff (and hide/block it) ?
