i have been trying to send progames via msn messanger. But every time i try it says (this progame may contains harmful files) and will not even give them the option to let it though. is there a way to fix this on blitz or is it the computers them sevles.

try sending it in a zip file and try send other exe files. then tell us what msn said.

Another way is renaming them to .txt. You have to disable the option 'hide extensions for known filetypes' in windows explorer->extra->folder options. Otherwise the file is renamed to .txt.exe and will still be denied. After transmission, the receiver should rename the file from .txt to .exe again.

Or try Yahoo Messanger... it not only avoids the problem but I've discovered that it also happens to transfer files faster.
