Blocked file types in SharePoint 2010

Each Web application maintains a list of blocked file types that is based on file name extensions. For example, you can block files that have the .exe extension because those files can be run on the client computer and can contain malicious code.

By default, many file types are blocked, including file types that are treated as executable by Internet Explorer. Files, whose names include braces, (for example, filename.{doc}) are also blocked by default.

Following are the file types that are blocked by default and their corresponding file name extensions.
