Obviously, that's what you call it if you're the guy who wrote it.

Note that spammers, when cornered, tend to insist that they do what they do
as a public service, because "someone might want to receive it".

Similarly, I'm sure that somewhere out there, the slime that author this
crap that infests the systems of our friends and colleagues (and never
ourselves, of course, oh no) are sitting there, thinking "yeah, someone will
want me to use their processor time to send out the spam that someone might
want to receive, to bilk them out of some money they wanted to get rid of
anyway..."

Okay, who am I kidding - they're trash, they know what people think of their
software, and the only people who want the malware are the guys making money
off it.

Alun.
