How can a virus be stored in a jpg ?

it can.

theme forest forum is ok, and the rest of them apart activeden

must be some user avatar. I will not understand how people can upload huge avatars, there’s no control done on this?

Got the alert as well on my AVG .

It’s very hard for me to believe that Common guys, this is not Windows 95…......

I never had an antivirus installed in 3 years +

So go on and unninstall those memory hogs called antivirus and don’t access / download files from nasty sites

I know the user

is this user photo

activeden user/nikrizay

DON ’T go to his page if you don’t have an antivirus program.

And is exactly when started to happen, like half an hour ago.

EDIT : seems that we all found it at the same time

problems comes from nikrizay user
he has renamed a php file to jpg and used for both profile and avatar image

this kind of thing won’t do shit to any user, so don’t panic

problem is that it gives the impression envato sites have been hacked.

Thanks guys, I’ll pass this along to the necessary staff.
