Question regarding Filename Rules

I have a client who is requesting that I remove the double extension rule.  They are getting files (jokes, at that!) with .htm.html extensions (along with other things) and they want the double extension rule removed.

I think this is a bad idea, can anyone give me a better argument than "Because I said" to leave it in place?

What are the chances of them being MORE at risk for infection?

Thanks!

Rob
