    Yea there is alot of ways, but this way is the easiest for hacker's. Its like accepting a time bomb when you just accept a file someone is sending you.

    All your guides are a tee of for an amazing idea, but you don't expand on them much. Your title covers a wide range, but all you do is cover how to reject files.
    But it's a good layout, and I like pictures. So well done, but it could be improved.

    Not everyone looks for a simple guide. You can break anything down into enough chunks for people to do.
