: These files exploit the recursive nature of certain compression algorithms or the ability to nest many layers of compressed folders within one another.
: Decompression tools often limit how many "layers" deep they will extract automatically to prevent recursive expansion.
: Most security software now flags zip files with unusually high compression ratios as suspicious.
Rapidly uses all available RAM, leading to a system-wide "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD). Protective Measures
The decompression process consumes 100% of processing power, freezing the system.
