For extension blocking trend only looks one level. If an exe is in a zip it will scan it using the AV patterns, but it won't block it. At least 6.2 works that way.

Trendmicro doesn't have anything on it, neither does Norton. McAfee does though. We just received one in a zip file (I thought Trend examined zips?). Either way, we've started blocking zips, too. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
