I'm struggling to understand what you mean by reputation rating in this context 
- a file is a file, and short of taking a blanket "anything ending in '.exe' 
fails" sort of approach, I can't see how you can apply any sort of reputation 
rating.
If you were to try and apply a ".gif is potentially dangerous" approach, then 
what next ?
You scan it and find it matches a malware signature - no different to just 
scanning it.
You scan it and find that it doesn't match anything - now what ? It's scanned 
clean, but now you are wanting to say that it could still be harmful (just 
because it's a ".gif"), or it could be clean.

That's for email anyway.
