I've been blocking RAR files since I read this article: http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/02/21/1944230&tid=172&tid=201&tid=2 18
I'm using my Norton AV to block the RAR files but it could be accomplished with a rule as well. Here is the KB article for those that are running Imail's AV: http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20041105-DM01.htm Todd Bierbaum - MCP BankTrust - IT Department Office: 850-835-3335 ext 106 Cell: 850-598-3993 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Van Hefner Sent: Friday, March 04, 2005 2:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [IMail Forum] RAR Virus All, I was just wondering if anyone out there has noticed a bunch of these .rar viruses today? I've seen users get a couple of these this morning. They are not detected by the mail server, which uses MxGuard to scan with F-Prot and CLAM AV, and Norton didn't detect it when my mail client downloaded it to the desktop, either. They are pretty obviously viruses with .rar attachments and a blank body though. Anyone have a clue why this virus is not being stopped, or any clue as to how to stop it, other than blocking all .rar files (not easy to do with Imail). Thanks.
