Re: [Full-Disclosure] JPEG Virus

[Steve Kudlak]

Well I am always careful with what comes with this list. Pretty much anything that has come so far hasn't been "spring loaded". But if one is a "duh, uh I just  click on anything in front of me..."  I mean teenaged friends kind of think I am being a snarly old dude because I want them to label their cute little multiattachment letters of kitty cat pictures with something. I do worry about that problem...target something at a community, make it look like standard stuff that gets passed around in that community and that would be a good way tp start spreading stuff.

Two personal replies in my mailbox, from a couple of lusers who obviously missed the difference between the above declaration "will then infect your machine" with the obvious correction of "will then infect your WINDOZE machine." -- Dave _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
