GMail: Howto skip attachment virus verification

When I open old messages on gmail, I like to download attachmentes imediately. And by that I mean I can’t even wait 5 or 6 seconds while it’s being scanned for virus! What the hell! I sent the attachment myself, I know it has no virus! It’s now a malware or spyware, nothing! No antivirus will find anything there.

So, to skip antivirus verification on Gmail, like I do, just click FORWARD on the bottom of the message, right below the attachment list. The message to be forwarded will have links to download the attachments on the original message and, better, they don’t need to be scanned! 🙂
