Hello Peter,

I see in the press that there is a vulnerability in various Microsoft software when processing jpeg images. Is PMView vulnerable?
see http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3684552.stm
If you know what is going on here you might give us some info--the press doesn't know much.

How will PMView behave if it encounters one of these "malformed" JPEGs? ... ie. a JPG designed to cause an overflow in Win sw?

It would be handy to know what symptoms to watch for so that one knows if an email or web site is serving up such troubles.

Thanks.
