More Jpg Exploit in the Wild News

Got to love the old school viruses. The jpg exploit has gone back to the future by making its first notable appearance in porno newsgroups. There is a good writeup of this over at http://www.easynews.com/virus.txt

The virus is using the JpegOfDeath sample exploit code made available on the net to install remote admin software and downloading assorted hacker tools to make life easier.
