Here are some tools to assist you: malwarebytes, bitdefender, ccleaner, regcurepro, advanced systemcare, spyware terminator, zemana antilogger, winpatrol, registry and .dll fixer. These are among the programs I rely on right now.
Yes, it's possible. You can also obtain them via .pif files. The person mentioning jpegs is just joking. You can't attach a virus to an image file because it won't execute when Windows Photo Viewer opens—it will corrupt the image and prevent viewing. If you need help, let me know here and I’ll assist you remotely. Also, update your Steam account details right away. And please share the URL so I can help you bypass their server.
This seems to be a casual way of saying they think it fixes their issue completely!
You're not familiar with ADS? You can still get viruses from jpeg files, as this has happened before. ADS—or alternative data streams—are just one method used for that. Although the technique isn't as strong today as it once was, it remains a possibility. Also, you don't know all the other viruses someone might have. If they were infected with malware that altered the registry to make every jpeg scanned by a malicious executable (like EXTRK.EXE), then jpegs could be a way to spread the infection.
