'It appears that information theft has taken a new form: we’ve found a malware that steals image files from all drives of an affected system and then sends them to a remote FTP server.

Detected as TSPY_PIXSTEAL.A, this particular malware opens a hidden command line and copies all .JPG, .JPEG, and .DMP files. Both .JPG and .JPEG files pertain to file formats commonly used for images, while .DMP files are memory dump files that contain information on why a particular system has stopped unexpectedly.' ..

- so your money placement on images are not sure.:(
