Re: password protected zips getting throughI'm receiving the same stuff... A lot...

I imagine this is a faulty virus... How could I stop this?

  When I get them they are 0 or 1 bytes large???

    We get these as well but there are no passwords on them.  Try opening one of those 78 byte zips and you will see what I mean.

    Hello all... 
      
    even though I have "Allow Password-Protected Archives = no" in my mailscanner conf, I still get emails going through with apparently password protected zip files attached , mind you the zip files are empty, so I do not know if its mailscanner doing something to it or they are that way before they get to the server as I do not seem to see any reference in my logs to mail scanner doing anything to these files.....??


    I am running MS 4.28 
    SA 2.63 
      
    with a few conf files 
      
    On redhat 9.0 
      
    Thanks 
      
    :) 

    Rob....
