i appreciate your considering this, and yes it is what was sent to me
after someone's virus checker on their (PC i imagine) system warned
that the quicktime movie file i created, with the questionable-image as
one of the many of the frames, was sent to him. therefore, the movie
had one image that had this problem, and was part of a quicktime .mov
project i did, and did not know about it until after and have only had
the
oddness with the finder on my system (no virus when scanned with
Norton,
previous to this message sent to me) and it seems that it would be
able to
be sent to a friend through an image, as they did not download the file
because of the warning. if you want i can send you the image and you
can troubleshoot it on your computer if you think it is impossible for
it
to do any damage or if you are able to diagnose it. the image was from
a PC most likely. so it may be traveling this way (though it seems you
said it is not possible). and the worm description sounds different
from
the behavior experienced yet the mystery remains of their connection.
the reason this was sent was in case others experienced anything of
this sort, and to learn about the 'finder' restart issue and preview
is new
to me and any information/URLs would be appreciated to learn more.
thanks for sharing what you know. bc
