Since that would require dedicated antivirus software.</p> <p>However, MachForm doesn't send attachment to your email, instead it sends a download link which will prompt you to either download the file or not. So it protect you from immediately downloading the file into your inbox.</p> <p>I suggest to restrict the file type for your upload fields.</p> <p>To restrict the file type, check this post:<br /> <a href="http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/limit-attachment-types?replies=4" rel="nofollow">http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/limit-attachment-types?replies=4</a> </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/security-threat#post-1058 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 22:12:13 +0000 thebirdbath 1058@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>So far I'm very very happy with my Machform. One question I have is on the upload options for the form. Is there anything to stop threats from being uploaded on the server and then being activated? Can an intruder upload a virus with this method?</p> <p>Along those same lines, can I restrict the type of files to be uploaded to my server. Like .jpgs or .docs? What about only allowing .pdfs?</p> <p>Thanks </p>
