Attachment Filtering
Knowing that over 98% of all viruses currently spread as an email

even totally new viruses from penetrating your network. Examples of
popular virus attachment came in the following extensions: .exe .com .bat
.vbs .scr .pif .html and .zip
Intelligent Reversed Scanning
Virus writers are constantly devising new ways to trick users into opening
and running viruses in the attachment. The latest trick involves inserting
virus executable in a zipped file. Since zipped files are being used
extensively to send work related documents, most companies do not filtered
out zipped files. This has enabled certain viruses to gain an advantage in
its survival.
ProtectNow! Intelligent Reversed Scanning are able to determine if the
files zipped inside are among those virus carrying attachments like .exe
and .pif. This great enhancement will ensure zipped-up virus-prone
attachments are filtered but documents zipped up are allowed to pass
through.
