Things like GLURP.JPG.EXE are used to spoof windows users since the
default browser setup only shows the first extension. Why am I not
surprised?

Worse, even when you tell Explorer NOT to hide file extensions, it
still hides some of them. For example, a .lnk file is used as a sort
of symbolic link (alias) to a program, and Explorer won't show the .lnk
suffix.
