Suggested change does not seem to be working for Version 3.8 or 3.7.  Am I
missing something, another check box maybe?  (on the phone to Trend now BTW)

Damn!  Same on Exchange 5.5 version as well.  Version 3.8, pattern 207.  I
was able to create vbs files in notepad and happily pass them along.  Good
catch Tim.  I'll go ahead and implement the change here as well.

Subject: Fix from Trend for Exchange 2000 Attachment blocking


Just got off the phone with Trend. I noticed .bat files were not being
blocked even though they were on my list of attachments to block by file
extension. Trend indicates that blocking by file extension interprets by
"true file type," meaning a .bat is a .txt file! The fix is to put in the
"Attachments with specified file names:" entries like *.bat, *.scr, *.vbs,
etc. I added almost my entire list minus a few like gif, jpg, mov, etc that
being blocked correctly now.

Exchange 2000 SP2 on Windows 2000 SP2
Scan engine version is: 5.630-1025
Pattern is 207
All Product version are: 6.00

Here are my entries:
Attachments with specified extensions:
bat;gif;jpg;jpeg;386;acm;asp;avb;bin;cla;class;cnv;com;cs;dll;drv;gms;hlp;ht
a;htt;inf;ini;lnk;mpd;ocx;sys;tlb;tsp;vxd;wbt;wiz;exe;vbs;avi;mov;mp3;mpg;mp
eg;wsh;js;reg;ins;wsf;vbe;jse;pif;wsc;sct;hta;shs;scr;cmd;mht*;ov*;

Attachments with specified file names: 
*.bat;*.386;*.acm;*.asp;*.avb;*.bin;*.cla;*.class;*.cnv;*.com;*.cs;*.dll;*.d
rv;*.gms;*.hlp;*.hta;*.htt;*.inf;*.ini;*.lnk;*.mpd;*.ocx;*.sys;*.tlb;*.tsp;*
