Hi inthewildteam,

I also thought about this possibility, because I am on a 2MBit DSL-Connection flatrate…

Maybe files without any extension should be scanned as html-type files, then at least we would get the files scanned that mostly enter our systems without any control: The Web-Pages. If the extensionless files of the firefox are not scanned, a vbscript virus can enter the system easily.

I think firefox does matter a lot, so some coordinated look into this matter should be done.

Of course I can set my realtime settings to high, but I don’t see any sense in scanning .txt or .png files when they are written to the disk. Also a little more cpu is also consumed.

Scanning extensionless files as html/php/xml-type would definately be a step in the right direction. At least better than not scanning them at all :wink:
