Its not up to the ISP to determine outbound malicious traffic, but its up
to the ISP to respond in a timely manner to complaints. Many (most?) do not.

If they did their support costs would explode. It is block the customer,
educate the customer why they were blocked, exterminate the customers PC,
unblock the customer. No doubt there'll be a repeat of the same in short
time.
