I think they're refering to the attachment itself which probably has a double extension like xxx.jpg.pif Most ppl's wincomps don't show the second extension, and awaaaaay they go. I suppose you could hide some executable code in a picture ........ but AFAIK you'd need at minimum some sort of code like .html to start it.
