Like a lot of people, i had downloaded 3121 before its release (after which I bought a copy).

I still have the mp3's I downloaded on file on my PC. This weekend I was told by that little Microsoft gremlin that lives inside my PC that Windows updates were ready to be downloaded. So I downloaded them. No problems.

Only now, in the folder where 3121 reside there is the album art, cover pics etc etc. I never downloaded these, they have just appeared after the Windows updates...

Whats that about?

I think you have the 3121 virus

Did you download The Chocolate Invasion and The Slaughterhouse too?

Do you have the artwork?

usually if u use Windows media player it will automatically download these without ur knowing so it can show the picture in the visualisation box if u have nuthin turned on.
Problem solved!

But he said album art, cover pics etc etc

Yep, there's a setting which automatically downloads info and artwork if you play the file while connected to the internet if the music is recognised.

If you want to turn it off, open up Window Media Player, right-click on the top-part of the window (above Library, Rip, etc) and then click Tools -> Options -> Library -> tickbox 'retrieve additional info from the internet'

I might have gotten adaware by downloading the self-excecutable .rar package of the leaked album. I'd never install those otherwise, but this was Prince's new album. So I rushed to open it.
