Re: disguised .exe files

Hi

I have done a quick check to the code in the current version and I 
didn't find anything that would block an 'exe' file if you changed 
the extension...

Well, I am not sure but I think that in old versions of QS it blocked 
this kind of files, because I have to change the extension to 
something like '.ex' in order to pass them through QS...

I don't have time now to check the older version, maybe Jason can 
tell us something about this.
