How can I filter specific attachment extensions (i.e. *.zip)?

[captain morgan]

Lately I've been receiving a lot of spam and ALL of the e-mails have an
attachment with a .zip extension. I don't receive zipped files in e-mail
from friends, so I'd like to filter out JUST that extension on attachments.
I'm familiar with setting up filters, but I can't seem to accomplish what
should be a simple task. Is there any way to filter out e-mails with
specific attachments?

No there is no way to filter based on attachment name. Just get used to
it - the latest Sober outbreak is annoying to all.

Thanks for the reply. Is this a virus or spyware problem? I've performed
virus and spyware checks but have come up empty.
