Hello!
Im trying to build some rule to stop users from downloading .exe .iso files.
I have no problem when we are speaking of ftp downloads as files are identified by their extension. But http file downloadings are first identified by MIME types.
So, to stop those downloads I've used a content group rule and selected application/octect-stream type.
This works fine but some web pages can't be seen (I suppose those which have some binary content).
How can I prevent from downloading binary files via HTTP and at the same time let users watch every page??

Many thanks.
