That ain't near enough. If you *really* want to get rid of Win32 stuff, try:


.386    .bat    .bin    .cmd    .com    .cpl
.exe    .lnk    .pif    .scr    .shb    .vbs

and if you want to be even more aggressive, add:

.ade    .adp    .bas    .chm    .crt    .dll    .dot
.eml    .hlp    .hta    .inf    .ins    .isp    .js
.jse    .mdb    .mde    .msc    .msi    .msp    .mst
.ocx    .pcd    .pif    .reg    .sct    .shs    .shs
.url    .vb     .vbe    .wsc    .wsf    .wsh    

Of course, that will nuke a lot of stuff you don't want to lose, especially for someone interested in security.

But it is one hell of a housecleaner. :)
