Kazaa Warning



http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/22119.html

"But six per cent of all music downloaded from KaZaA is not music at
all,
but a virus. Currently, there is no way to infect mp3s with a virus;
however
KaZaA's poor filtering allows someone to rename a virus to - say -
cant_touch_this.mp3.vbs. When you do a search for the song named
"Can't
Touch This" KazaA will display this as
"cant_touch_this.mp3", without
displaying the .vbs extension. "
