If anyone wants to send a .exe he/she is intelligent enough to be able to zip it. Accepting .exe is asking for trouble. Outlook Express by default will block .exe .. I am not sure about Outlook but I don't think it does. We have an autoreply that is sent to anyone sending .exe or any of the blocked attachments asking them to zip it if they wish to send it.

With one of the last new viruses this weekend one virus managed to slip through between my automated updates to at least myself. And this was a double extension .JPG.exe there are no reasons what soever in my opinion that anyone should ever need to send a attchment with a double extension like that. We run a ISP so I don't want to blindly just block .exe extensions (I do block .pif, .scr and a few other selected for which there shuold be no or very extremely minimal reason a user every need to send such a attachment). Please advise.
