RE: Blocking Files - toasters

      If you're for some reason not using virus protection, you could probably get
away with this by enabling virus protection and setting it to only scan the
extensions that you want to deny.  I would except then that the filer would
try to virus scan those files, fail to do so, then deny access to the files.
That's a klugey way to do it though.  It's *much* better to have the virus
protection.

Hi Toasters,

is there any way of blocking certain file types from being saved to my
filer.
Prime examples: .mpeg, .mp3, .mov
