Rule for deleting e-mail based on attachment filename

I've been getting a lot of unsolicited e-mail with viruses attached to them.
Fortunately, my ISP deletes the attachment and attaches a text file that
usually states that the attachment was infected by a virus. The filename is
always named "Deleted0.txt" How do I create a rule that deletes e-mails that
have attachments with the word "Deleted" in the filename?

Thanks in advance.

Outlook rules do not apply to attachment names. I know, I have tried.

Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. Due to
the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.

After furious head scratching, Carlos asked:
