What is the .zm9 file extension used for?
ZoneAlarm MailSafe
Zone Labs was a creator of security software that was acquired by Checkpoint Software. ZoneAlarm MailSafe is a part of the ZoneAlarm Firewall Pro which is a powerful software firewall. ZoneAlarm MailSafe is an email security software which protects the system against potential viruses which can arrive as email attachments.
MailSafe is kept active by default in the firewall and it can also be disabled using the options provided by the software. MailSafe provides security against the most common email protocols POP3 and IMAP. The MailSafe software identifies malicious .vbs or visual basic scripts and prevents them from executing on the system. When a virus or a malware is detected in an email the file is quarantined immediately and then the file is compressed and saved in the .zm9 file extension.
MailSafe doesn?t delete mails with malicious content from the system immediately, as it is not a virus scanner. Instead of deleting the mail it is quarantined and stored in a .zm9 file extension format. This provides the user with an opportunity to check for the mails authenticity. If the mail is wrongly quarantined, you can click on the file with the .zm9 file extension and provide an exception.
Sometimes, the ZoneAlarm MailSafe can cause conflicts with the mail client and can completely freeze the system. Disabling the MailSafe software and then opening the email client will solve this issue.
