Yes, jpeg is an image compression method and .jpg is the extension
commonly given to the jpeg compressed files. The decompress of the jpeg
file only happens with the help of JPeg capable programs like browser
and photo editing software. You do not execute the jpeg file because you
can't. However, it is possible for someone to rename an executable file
into something like vir.jpg or vir.bmp. And in normal cause, this will
not cause any problem in Windows as Windows will check file extension
and load the photo editing software to load the file and display some
error message since it is not a jpeg file. However, in the native
Windows API calls, you can let Windows execute any file regardless the
file extension as long as the format of the file is that of the windows
executable file (or called PE format). This can only be done through 3rd
party software, however. Maybe your IRC software have this feature to
execute those files if instructed.
