This trojan thing: EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!!
My husband told me that it was our teen-ager who was downloading movies etc. from Kazaa and then all these virus' got in and plastered my 'favorites' with all this extreme smut...
It happened overnight! I guess that the police couldn't use that to prove kiddy porn addiction, it must already be well documented.

Proof of addiction isn't necessary for conviction. That you have the files in your possession is all that's necessary to send you away for several years. The funny (not clown funny, but odd) thing is that it doesn't really matter who downloaded the images, or whether they were downloaded intentionally. Your husband would likely be the one they eyed for prosecution, doubly so if his name is on the Internet Service Provider account. Eventually, the law might actually catch up to the technology and reality. Until that time, you're in good shape and us menfolk are up the creek without a paddle. :-)

You really shouldn't be able to get a trojan from any media file. More than likely, the file's extension was faked in order to "trick" your son into thinking it was a movie when it was really an executable.
