Two useful approaches: Clamd.conf: =========== ScanArchive ArchiveMaxRecursion 5 ArchiveMaxFiles 1000 ArchiveMaxFileSize 10M ArchiveMaxCompressionRatio 250 ArchiveBlockMax This will limit the size of files when uncompressing, and will also prevent massive files from being allowed through - the "ArchiveBlockMax" option reports files as viruses if they fail any of the size, recursion or file count checks. Mimedefang-filter: ================== Have two lists of bad file extensions - those which are not allowed anywhere, and those which are not allowed in ZIP files. Add ZIP, RAR, BZ2, etc to this list even if you allow them normally - recursive archives are to be strongly discouraged. Paul. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
