WOW, I have never read so much disinformation in my life. First off, *if* you were going to embed viral code into an image it would be through the use of stenography. But the fact still remains it would be completely benign until it was extracted and compliled or ran if it was some uber lame VB script. Which is not likely since the entire porpose of stenography is to HIDE the existance of data within the image. *sighs*
