zip bomb help? - cuttlefish - Feb 13, 2012
I'm not quite sure that this is the right section to post this, but whatever. I recently created this zip bomb that will hopefully crash anti virus software that tries to scan it. The file is about 70 GB uncompressed. I have three questions.
1. Will this work if I send it by e-mail? I was wondering if the anti virus scanner would even attempt to scan it.
2. Is this file big enough to crash the software if it is all uncompressed?
3. If I send this to my own email account, will Yahoo care? I don't want to get in trouble.
I'm not posting the file for my own convenience, if you have any questions, feel free to post below. Thanks.
