In an ideal world, yes.  In practice this may be somewhat more difficult
than you expect.  Consider the following: anyone who "allows" his machine
to be compromised in the first place might simply not consider security
to be high priority, and may not respond to a notification that his
system is compromised by closing the security hole.

This is getting somewhat off-topic as far as the LMAP protocol is
concerned, though.
