Hi,

I have been trying to block flv extension using video/x-flv, but no success. Any idea?

Also, I blocked exe and allowed zip with scanning, but it does not block compressed exe files.
Is this by design?

Thanks elmajdal, that is a good solution.
But I thought that setting such restrictions on one place would be easier for administration.
And we paid for it.

always to make sure that ur setting is effective, its better to restrict one thing via multiple ways.

like by extension, signature, content type and so on.
