My friend reports that his entire collection of MP3 files, through no action
of his, have been renamed 'Billy Joel - We Didn't Start The Fire001" 002,
003 and so on. This song is one of the 600 mp3s he has. The files still have
their original content, tags and play properly.
Anyone know if a worm/virus caused this? Does any of the tagging programs
with batch-rename the files from the tags?
 
There are so many viruses that target MP3 files, its hard to say. Many do a
rename. I suggest you go to a virus library such as
http://vil.nai.com/vil/default.asp and perform an "advanced" search on "mp3".
