There was a computer virus alert earlier this year regarding the JPEG format. Evidently, there's some way to hide a virus in a jpeg file, and have the virus activate when the jpeg is loaded in a typical viewer. This would be good info to include, but I would want to research and verify the details first. Perhaps someone will beat me to it? Wesley
