Todd Towles to Dr Solly:
I don't think so, it looks like a site that gives information about the viruses, some 6000 of them. Either the author of the site has been working very hard on disassemblies, or else he's collected info from other places and copied it to his site.His naming scheme is different, that is for sure. I-worm.Sober.A or Email-Worm.Win32.Sober.n
That is characteristically KAV and/or BitDefender and a few others (given the latter -- BD plus others -- copy a huge proportion of their names straight from KAV no matter how obviously wrong/silly/etc they are, it can be hard to tell vendors apart from such a small sampling).
