I just carried out this procedure yesterday since I am now managing an Exchange server 5.5 that did not have any file extensions being blocked. I used the articles below to block all .scr 's and it is working great. The user gets a message that the attachment was quarantined because the file type is not allowed. I need to finish blocking all the other nasty types that have been suggested by the group.

I had a similar problem way back when "I love you" hit. Search Symantec's knowledge base http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/enterprise/ for the following articles: 1999041511561848 and 1998102611314548 I hope this helps.

Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Dawson, Valencia [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 8:39 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: W32.Aliz.Worm..Help We have Norton Anti-Virus 5.0 installed on the Exchange 5.5 Server, as well as Norton Antivirus for Microsoft Exchange. When viruses come it is picked up and NAV for Microsoft Exchange keeps the statistics of who gets the virus, what virus and from whom. What has been happening for a week now is that NAV picks up the W32.Aliz virus and it is not picked up by NAV for Microsoft Exchange. I want to block who this virus is coming from because in one day the NAV might pick up thousands of this virus and this create a great load on the server. I have tried several ways to try to determine what the problem is to block it and I am now at a loss, because the NAV on the server is still picking up the virus, whereas all the others viruses are being picked up by the NAV for Microsoft Exchange. Can't find anything on Microsoft or Symantec to help. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Valencia Dawson Asst.
