Hey I know. To make extra sure that no Windows users get infected by our viruses, we should pack them in several container layers to ensure no user could possibly get the virus to execute by accident. For example, what if we put the virus content in an email attachment, then put the email in a mailbox file, then put the mailbox file in a tarball, then put the tarball in an xz compression stream, then put the xz stream in an 'ar' archive. Surely _that_ would prevent anyone from ever executing it by accident, and any virus scanner so thorough as to flag it anyway would just be acting dumb at that point. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
