History.
1. Have been sending (each unique) emails to customers.
2. Each contains a brief message and an attached text
file.
3. Approximately 75 are sent on a daily basis.
4. Today customers have called indicating their virus
checkers have detected a virus in the attached file.
Since is the first time this has ever happened, has anyone
had any experience with anything similar?
It would seem that the chance of a text file containing a
bit pattern that would match whatever bit pattern the
virus checker is using is small. When more than one unique
attachment matches it would seem almost impossible.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
