TLB 3.1 includes a vulnerable version of the file gdiplus.dll. Potentially, someone could distribute a plugin or skin with a virus in a JPEG file. There are updated versions of the gdiplus.dll file, but it needs to be included in TBL.

That's interesting... I'm running 3.1 and gdiscan doesn't report any such DLL as part of TLB. I wonder if it came with one of the plugins?

jens you need update for Drive Space. The last version do not use gdiplus.

Also note if you download updated gdiplus.dll from microsoft the old version will not be installed.
