When you clikc on the attachment, it goes to next page after it's scanned and you should see this below:


"Hotmail automatically scans all attachments using McAfee".

And then a little tables with the name of the file and scan results as below:

Name of File yourfile.zip
Virus Scan Result No Virus Found

If you look a little up to the right, below the hotmail graphic, there is another button, one says download, the other says cancel. When you click that, the dialog box comes up asking you what location you wanna save the file to, and bobs your uncle. It's a little confussing, they've just outlook-a-fied hotmail.

Cheers,

Nick
