    Yeah, I used to use it a long time ago when I was still on windows (supposedly it also works on Linux though).

    Iirc you can distribute wallpapers on wallpaper engine as arbitrary JavaScript or just an executable, so this news doesn’t surprise me at all.

      Yeah, it’s the ‘Application’ wallpapers which are the attack vector here.

      Hardly surprising that malware peeps would be all over it
