"Limewire fakeing files"

Search for some random letters on Limewire andsee if it finds anything and offers to let you download it.

Mabye it's just my version but if I type in:

asdftyy tyuuihj bghhj

I get back:

asdftyy_tyuuihj_bghhj.wav

or

asdftyy_tyuuihj_bghhj.jpg


Anyone else get this?




Stuff you lot.

They're viruses trying to exploit the JPEG vulnerability that was announced aaaages ago, but people still haven't updated.

Basically the compromised copies of Limewire will return this filename and file to any search they recieve.

Easy.

There is always like 2 files a jpeg and a wmv, of an ipod with an advert in. For like everything i search for.

Yes, it appears so.

I think I'll have to grab a new copy of Limewire.

Because I was looking for some obscure comedy things and for each it kept finding one file which was the exact search details I'd typed in but with _'s between the spaces.

Very freaky.

I got nothing also.
