Exchange 2003 placing attachment zip files on quarantine.
Hello Guys,
I need some help in here, I'm running exchange 2003 on a SBS server 2003, and one of my users got a attachment placed on quarantine "somewhere"...
Here is the attachment that came on place of the zip file that he should have received:
----
FILE QUARANTINED
The original contents of this file have been replaced with
this message because of its characteristics.
File name: 'winmail.dat->filenamehere.zip'
Virus name: 'Exceedingly compressed size'
----
I did some research on this, and all topics points out to some forefront settings related to the zip file size, but I do not have forefront on my server. So my question is: Is there a way to disable it ? can I still find this attachment somewhere?
Thanks a lot...

Perhaps not. But how about Antigen? Is that installed?
It's not Exchange that's doing this, it's the AntiVirus software.
