Its just common sense for me to think that if I see a strange extension, that you are doing just that: trying to conceal the fact that you have a MIME type installed that you are trying to hide (and this is an old PHP trick believe me). While it isn't necessarily PHP, there's not too many things it could be. To me this is just asking for trouble. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.hiding.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+35015 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+35015&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+35015&report=yes
