They’re coming in through the pictures…

Miles, the tinyapps.org guy, points us to a an article about yet another Microsoft vulnerability. It turns out that there’s a way that just downloading a jpg can let a virus in.

You can run a utility on this page to see if your machine is vulnerable (mine was), and there’s also a link to the page with the plug for the hole. It does not require you to upgrade to SP2, a fate some of us are postponing.

What next, viruses that get in if you type too slowly?
