  except if you put it in a password encrypted archive beforehand. because then nobody has access to it.

    Ya think?

    Microsoft is scanning the inside of password-protected zip files for malware arstechnica.com/…/microsoft-is-scanning-the-insid…

    There are probably more secure methods than a password protected zip file, but just so you know.

      how would they scan the inside of a password protected zip archive? the whole purpose of the password is that nobody can open it without the pw. you can may look at the zip archive self and check the checksum or maybe filenames, but not open and extract the files to check them (images etc). specially not if you maybe even use rar archives who are even more secure and you can protect even filename lists etc.
