Further to the last post made about blocked file extensions, we have found the full list of blocked file extensions. If you need to send files with these extensions over MSN Messenger, it would be best to send them in a zip file.

The full list of extensions is as follows:

.ade .adp .app .asp .bas .bat .cer .chm .cmd .com .cpl
.crt .csh .exe .fxp .hlp .hta .inf .ins .isp .its .js .jse .ksh .lnk
.mad .maf .mag .mam .maq .mar .mas .mat .mau .mav
.maw .mda .mdb .mde .mdt .mdw .mdz .msc .msi .msp .mst
.ops .pcd .pif .prf .prg .pst .reg .scf .scr .sct .shb .shs .tmp
.url .vb .vbe .vbs .vsd .vsmacros .vss .vst .vsw .ws .wsc .wsf .wsh

if you try and send a file with one of these extensions, your contact will recieve this message:

emailhere@msn.com tried to send you a file (filename.extension). This file has been blocked because it is potentially unsafe.

On another note, it seems that the message that appears stating that the file is blocked appears in a different window than the one sending it. Confusing!
