[QUOTE="LaurentG, post: 935589, member: 91050"] OK with you to close the tread. But just before closure, According to me, this is a lot [B]too much[/B]. I could agree if it was "fight any scripting code that wants to download something and run[B] IT (what it just downloaded) just after[/B]" Or maybe "fight any scripting code that wants to download something and run something, identified in such a way that Defender [B]CANNOT KNOW what is launched to be run[/B]" But surely NOT "fight any scripting code that wants to download something and run just after [B]a completely different exe whose name is given in clear[/B]" In particular when this exe is part of Windows, like Notepad in your case. And also OK to "fight any scripting that...." but [B]surely NOT[/B] to "fight [B]any text file that is NOT a script and cannot run as is,[/B] even if this text looks like the source code of a script that...." like it did, preventing me to get your e-mail.... BTW, an e-mail I cannot receive, by definition, I cannot submit it to Microsoft.... Maybe see you again in another discussion... Regards [/QUOTE]
