Rules Wizard: Looking for HTML Tag Attributes

I've been receiving an onslaught of worm emails. Though my virus
scanner is cleaning them, most still have web bugs embedded (i.e. a
0x0 size image/iframe used to track users). The Rules Wizard seemed
like an easy way to trap these web bugs, but it doesn't seem to
recognize attribute values inside of HTML tags - only the actual
content within the body. For example, the following code snippet
would trigger a rule looking for "Hello", but not one looking for
"width=0 height=0".

<html>
<body>
<iframe src="badguy.com" width=0 height=0></iframe>
Hello
</body>
</html>

I saw a few posts that mentioned malformed HTML could cause problems.
My question is: is there a way for me to treat incoming HTML as text
for the Rules Wizard?

Thanks,
Josh

Not that I'm aware. I wish there were.
