You can't be sure that it's actually responsible for hosting and
distributing the virus. Some people attack a web site by making it
appear to be the source for spam/viruses; the counterattacks performed
by people like you are what actually kills the site.

Rule of thumb: you can't trust anything spam/viruses say about
themselves, especially including any hint they might contain as to who
was their source.

Commercial spam can be tracked down: in order to make a profit, sooner
or later they have to hit you up for money. In some cases (not all),
they will ask for payment in a manner that makes it possible to tracke
them down. You might have to actually pay the money in order to track
them down, but it is possible.

Viruses aren't usually greedy, at least not in that sense, so that
approach won't work with them.
