ZIP(500 empty text files + 1 KB VIRUS) = not detectable Does not it make any sense? What if somebody uses a portal server andsecure that portal with secure protect and let users upload anddownload files? If it is a server protect it has to secure server. And the logical way for detecting must be checking both size and filecount then skip instead of just counting files and skip. 05.02.2006 tarihinde Prashant Meswani <prashant.meswani@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> yazmış:> You need to weigh up the pros and cons of using the maximum number of files> to scan in a compressed files option in any product.
