Then, I dunno, some idiot thought he could rename an exe as a zip without removing its potency.
Here is the thing, again: Zips are not executed! Nor do they automatically execute their contents! It is conceivable that a file could exploit buffer overflow exploits in
specific clients, but that possibility exists whenever you open almost
any file - be it PNG, ZIP, NW, etc. Unless you're using an exceedingly stupid, unpatched client, you don't have anything to worry about.
