A .bat isn't an image file. I make sure I don't open anything that could possibly harm my computer. I don't have much protection, just spyware mostly. I did have AVG installed, but after the format I haven't reinstalled. I guess I need to get something back on there.

Don't open .exe's especially, but steer clear of .bat's as well. A friend of mine said soemthing once about embeding a virus inside of an image, but the image file was fairly large. Good thing I haven't encountered a messenger virus yet, I wasn't even aware of them lol.
