Intelligent
Reversed Scanning
Virus writers are constantly devising new ways to trick users
into opening and running viruses in the attachment. The latest
trick involves inserting virus executable in a zipped file. Since
zipped files are being used extensively to send work related documents,
most companies do not filtered out zipped files. This has enabled
certain viruses to gain an advantage in its survival.
