I don't seem to see anything telling what the symptoms are.

It's not a virus it's an exploit. A means of gaining access to your computer. A malicious person can do *anything* he wants using this exploit.

It looks pretty serious. I would suggest at the very least performing the Microsoft workaround mentioned on the various sites linked here.

Otherwise, I would suggest you not continue reading FR, since any hack DU clown could post a malicious image in a thread here and you are done.

As I understand it, anyway.
