Hello.

I have search the forums but can't find an answer to my question.

I have a members based site built with C5 that has a forum using the "Discussions" add on from the marketplace.

When members on my site upload a file/photo to the forum for other members to look at it is saved to the "File manager" in C5 admin

My question is, Are these files also stored within my server and are they at any point scanned for virus?

Im not a expert in this area and am worried, What would happen if somebody uploaded a file with a virus attached and then another member downloaded it? and worse what if virus found its way onto my server files?

Any help is most appreciated. Thanks
