[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 856902, member: 37647"] Ah, thanks for the update. That makes sense. Links will always be a problem. [USER=32260]@Andy Ful[/USER]'s suggestion to use BandiZip is a good one. The more recent versions of Windows will be able to apply SmartScreen filtering to it, since the MarkOfTheWeb will still be present. AV detection on email-delivered malware will always be hit-and-miss, because email tends to deliver zero-days. But SmartScreen is not easily fooled by zero-days. On the contrary, it is very suspicious of new samples, unless they bear a high-quality digital signature. That latter case is pretty rare, barring cases of high-level targeted attacks. [/QUOTE]
