I already emailed with this guy to tell him about the reasons why he might not want to do this. I obviously failed.

I don't see what the difference is, between this, and a VX site.

The difference being that he isn't creating any new malware himself?

I've often thought about putting up such a site myself, and may still do so someday. Of course, most people who work(ed) in the AV industry disagree with me on whether it's a good idea to allow public access to malware, so there you go.

I haven't looked at his implementation details. My plans call for features which would prevent my site from being usable as a download site from victimized machines.
