Figured. So the only way to get infected is if you do download it and execute it. And yep it's probably a trojan. By default windows hides extensions (really bad, it should be the oposite) so it would apear as a .jpg file. If the virus writer was smart he probably made it have a picture icon of ms picture viewer or something. |

A double extension usually is the mark of a trojan.  |

| Hmm probably one of those IE exploits where if you click it with IE it invokes a bunch of scripts into your system. If you have the link PM me it I want to try it in firefox to see what happends. LOL I'm experimental like that. Hmm I should just get VMware and do expirements like this in it. |

| One of my friends keeps sending me this and says he didn't. He said he was sent the same IM from someone else who claimed they didn't send it. " this was cool, check it out" The word "this" is a link to download something from some place. But anyways, fair warning. Don't click it. I'm not sure what it is or what it does, but chances are it isn't good. The file I think was titled, "untitled.jpg.exe". I think. Something along those lines. |
