Allo,
There is now a GDI+ jpeg exploiting virus in the wild. It was posted
on Mon, 27 Sep 2004 01:25:52 GMT via NNTP to multiple news groups by a
single person.
See the following for details:

You can see the virus here:

- IsolationX
The FTP site that was hosting the files was taken down. If anyone
would like to take a peek at the files used (for educational purposes
only of course), let me know off list. I grabbed a copy.
I'd also have to agree with Gerry. This doesn't replicate or spread
once executed - it just exploits the local machine, installing a
trojan/irc-bot, then connecting back. Still the first of it's kind
that I'd seen.

It's not a virus, just a connect back (82.1.163.241:55000) cmd shell
exploit.
