Please wait a bit. I'll update the topic soon.

Is it necessary to buy the Advanced Attachments addon in order to have this level of control?

In the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Addons > Attachments admin page, find and confogure the "Accepted File Types" option.

Does that mean that after a user is no longer classified as a new user they can attach a file of any type? Thanks.
