this is a hoax !

do not let yourself fooled by the well meaning looking
hangers on, actually there is _no_ JPEG2000 standard, it is
all a media lie and these guys are actually trying to make
you to unknowingly download a Bulgarian-written image worm
that will eat parts of the images on your hard drive and if
you don't clean it in time it will compress your hard-drive
to the size of a match and then you will have to get it
uncompressed by professionals -- and even so some of the
data will be corrupted by the lossy compression...
