Photobucket and viruses..?

Say... if you upload a picture (JPG) and it has a virus attached on it, then you upload it on a picture hosting site like Photobucket...

Would it still have a virus on it?

Like if you view the picture and save it would the virus be transfered to your computer..?

`Coz like I have a virus on this computer and I'm scared that the virus may have attached to one of my picture files and I would like to transfer them to a different computer.. without using a memory stick and such because that is like directly.. transferring.. the actual.. file.. ?:D

Thank you for helping :D

It's very unlikely you can transfer a virus via an image JPG file. I suggest that you pick up a free online virus scanner and let it check your HDD. This is the resource with descriptions: http://hubpages.com/hub/Top-Free-Online-...

Don't panic - there's nothing serious as per your description ;)
No the picture would'nt have a virus attached to it comeing from Photobucket.

I think you should get rid of that virus because it just takes a few mimutes and it wont cost you a cent. Just dont use Norton antivirus because it's a biger problem than the virus.

Good luck
I don't think it will still have a virus on it, but to be honest I'm not really sure never tried it.
