If you are attempting to access a blocked file type in SharePoint 2007, you will receive the following error:

The following file(s) have been blocked by the administrator

The following describes how to resolve the issue:

  1. Browse to the Central Admin site
  2. Select the Operations tab
  3. Under the Security Configuration section, click the link for Blocked file types
  4. Select the Web Application that you would like to modify from the drop down list
  5. Each blocked file extension displayed in the list is blocked by SharePoint.  To enable the blocked file extension, simply remove it from the list.
Hope that helps!
