HEADS UP - viruses in password protected zip files

[Spicer, Kevin]

This virus is spreading rapidly, we've seen it overnight (although not in its password protected form - but we had no way of spotting that so it may have got through).

I'm now blocking zip files (making me not very popular this morning!).

Time to start a discussion about ways to block password protected zip files?
