Maybe these are the extensions I was talking about in a another topic... anyway, isn't it better that emails are blocked with attachments containing this crap? I mean, if you really want to send someone a program, then zip it up and send it that way, save some bandwidth and space for christ's sake. Why the fuck not?
I don't believe there is any reason attachments of that type needs to be attached to an email...
Any thoughts people?
(
BTW, I think I got a .hta attachment with an email once that installed itself. The little bugger was good, it hid itself very well, until I removed the association for .hta files, and the next time my computer rebooted, the OS asked me what fucking program I would like to use to open virus.hta (i cant remember the name, it was something.hta). Ha ha, got 'em!)
