Exploits In Jpg, Mp3 And Video Formats

has any one had any problems with exploits in picture, music or video formats?

If so what client has been used to open the files and what has it done?

I am interested as I have read recently that a large percentage of files on the peer to peer networks are supposedly compromised. I use winamp for my mp3 files, and irfanview for my images and have not noticed anything untoward?

the only time I have seen anything remotely like an exploit is with some mpeg files, when I open them with mediaplayer 6.4 they will open up a browser window and try and access a site on the internet. I know media player can be used as a shell, but are people writing exploits to take advantage of this?

If an MP3 opens a net access, you have got it set to automatically download appropriate codecs.

Check that and it will ask you to go and check in future.
