[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 576299, member: 32260"] I think that both you and [USER=7463]@cruelsister[/USER] are right. If MB3 clearly states that executables should be run from the Web browser or e-mail client to be checked, then [USER=7463]@cruelsister[/USER] test procedure is flawed. Yet, [USER=7463]@cruelsister[/USER] is right in that MB3 shield is too short, because users can get files from many sources. Here are some examples listed below, when files can have no Zone Identifier. You have got the executable file using: *the downloader or torrent application (EagleGet, utorrent, etc.); *container format file (zip, 7z, arj, rar, etc.); *CD/DVD/Blue-ray disc; *CD/DVD/Blue-ray disc image (iso,bin,etc.); *non NTFS USB storage device(FAT32 pendrive, FAT32 usb disk); *Memory Card; It would be good to cover all those sources (especially the first and the second). E-mail attachments are often in container format so they cannot be run directly from the browser. [/QUOTE]
