Somehow it can ferret out that an attachment is an .exe even when the extention has been changed and the file is compressed inside an .arc, inside a .zip, inside a .rar- all password protected. Another webmail stupidity is with Yahoo. It claims any archived file with a password is a 'virus' and won't allow it to be sent as an attachment. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
