Re: [LegacyUG] Graphics being posted to the list

Certainly malware  scripts can be embedded in JPG images, but every server has 
anti-malware utilities that check for those.

As for size, if you look at the size of the post that you just sent, CE WOOD, 
it is greater than any of the individual images posted by Carrie Pillow.

That is because the internet headers are incredibly large, because of all the 
anti-malware checks that are done along the way from sender to Millennia's 
server and then back to all the subscribers to this list.
To view those internet headers - in Microsoft Outlook it is quite easy, using 
Message Options (you may have to customize).

Actually, size of individual list posts should not be a problem these days - 
provided small images are the rule. Windows Snipping Tool is usually OK for 
illustrative pics of Legacy Family Tree, I would think. Videos are always too 
large.

My opinion is that a few, well-chosen images clarify an explanation and will 
reduce the chatter through misunderstandings. Also, trimming some of the prior 
replies when sending a reply is sensible and polite. (That used to be a rule of 
internet etiquette)

CE,

I assume you have turned off all graphics in webpage browsing, and only view 
pure text.  Otherwise, you are exposing yourself to the exact same risks when

In this 'recent' discussion about graphics, Gene is the first to point out
the issue of bandwidth and/or download limits.

People need to remember that Legacy is an international product AND there
are users all around the world - many don't have access to unlimited
reasonably access!  And I'm speaking from experience here - living in
country Victoria in Australia.

Think of others.

No-one would dispute the value of images when explaining things but I would
dispute the value of open-slather on this list.  If you want why not put
your images on the Legacy Facebook page and include a link to, but don't
exclude the rest of the users from this list!

Re: [LegacyUG] Graphics being posted to the list

2017-05-08 Thread Denise Moss-Fritch
Thank you Martha. As another writer of technical documentation (retired in 2009 
after nearly 30 years in Silicon Valley) I agree. A graphic, along with 
callouts (arrows and text) to describe about what you are writing is very 
important.

 

However, as a writer who has used Microsoft (or Apple) interface terms since 
the mid-1980s, I cringe with some descriptions I read. A ‘screen’ is the 
surface of a monitor. A program displays in a window. The user can have several 
programs running, each in its own window, on the screen of the monitor.

 

Best,

 

Denise Moss-Fritch

Re: [LegacyUG] Graphics being posted to the list

2017-05-08 Thread CE WOOD
It's not just viruses; it's malware too. And your computer could already be 
infected, meaning you have no idea that the image you send contains the virus 
or malware.


Normal looking images can hack your computers. You should not presume the image 
files as "innocent" anymore, as they can hide malicious code deep inside its 
pixels that could infect your computers.


Photos can be embedded in emails as they are in webpages—and do their dirty 
work when you open the mail.  Steganography, which in a digital context means 
the art of hiding data in another type of file. Malicious code can be hidden 
within the pixels in any digital image.


Users typically don't think of common image files (such as .jpg, .png, .bmp, 
and .gif pictures) as risky or insecure, but it's possible to conceal malicious 
code in an image.


A graphic can easily contain additional bits interwoven within the image, 
without noticeably effecting the image's appearance. That additional data can 
include code, which is encrypted to make it harder to identify.

Luckily, such an altered image can't do much by itself. No image viewer will 
see or know what to do with that code, even if it isn't encrypted. But malware 
developers often break up their code into multiple pieces and distribute them 
separately to avoid detection.

The information hidden in a picture could contain instructions useful to 
another piece of malware on your computer. Once your computer is infected, what 
you send can be also. In other words, a device can be compromised, in theory, 
after simply opening a picture.
