Hi I know its crazy, but I was wondering if its possible to download a file that you know is infect with trogens or what not and have it secured (and safe) in a zip folder.
not usually.. but by all means try it. if you password the archive it is safer.. but you have to handle the infected file to do that. Use a proper OS and you don't have to worry about them.. I have a nice collection of worms and trojans collected from driveby download sites.
