Hi,

How do we stop users from downloading *.exe or some other file type from a website? Is there a software that would filter out downloaded file? Thanks !!

Regards,
Edmond

Hi,

You can run proxy server and configure it to not allow any .exe downloads.

Try this,

LanGuard -- Control what files enter your network via FTP/HTTP & be sure they are virus-free.
