That makes sense, I'm sorry for making a mistake, I think what you said how it's done fooled me. But it's possible to bind .exe with .gif, .bmp, .jpg (Pictures) right?
Same thing is done with a .gif, .bmp, .jpg dude. Binding an .exe to any type of file format will cause the file to be executed as simply just that, an .exe . Even with pictures, the same thing is done, just as with text files… or any file type for that matter.
What people tend to do a lot is bind a simple program, or a fake program, such as a pin generator, account freezer, to an actual FUD .exe which the physical RAT/logger (and I have seen this done so many times, and it is pathetic). Once the user then runs the fake program, the bound virus will run, screwing you over.
