I actually found their initial attempts really disappointing. I was hoping for some really cool, advanced stuff. Emailing them .jar files? To me that's laughable. When my friends and I used to try and infect each other with sub7 in the 90s it was with a .jpg with the executable buried inside. That was more sneaky that a .jar claiming to be a resume.

Do you mean something like file.jpg.exe?

Agreed, emailing .jar is kind of lame. They should have tried with some office/PDF exploits first!
