Don't click Baxter's malware links. It will install software to steal
your bank login and password details.
Really?!! a .jpg is malware. Well, I suppose you'd consider the picture >subversive.
Baxter is too stupid to know this.
Almost any image format can be edited to conceal malware, and the more appealing and popular the picture, the better: Images from the James
Webb telescope were recently used as part of a malware attack, for
example. Typically, these compromised pictures get served to you on
websites or embedded in documents. Malware code can be embedded in an
image in a few different ways, for example: Attached to the end of a
file, or through slight tweaks to individual bits of the code, or
through changes to the metadata associated with a file (this metadata
also stores the time and date the photo was taken, and other
information).
