Umm, I remember some discussion on getting inlined images to show up
in HTML-view pages that called those images. If that's the case,
couldn't TB! be just as susceptable to such a thing, if it needs to
render the HTML and to render the HTML it needs to launch a VBS,
etc...
Regardless, this particular virus (according to McAffee) needs to be
explicitly launched to get it to infect your system. Outgoing email
wouldn't necessarily be created, but I'd be relatively certain that
the other bad things would happen.

I've always wondered where that stuff is actually stored, since
there's no "TIF" directory under Windows... Ahh well, the secrets
that nobody will ever learn. ;)
