A friend downloaded The Gimp 2.0 into the computer at an arts workshop we both attend most weekdays, and it added its own name to the suffixes of the JPEG files that were stored on the machine; she, and a colleague (not me) who she thought The Gimp would be really useful to, thought this meant the relevant website --whichever one it was (I don't remember offhand)-- 's instance of T.G. had a virus, as that behaviour appeared virus-like.

Never heard of this happening before. Are you sure the actual files got renamed and it's not just MS-Windows telling you that it's recognizing the .jpgs as a GIMP specific file format?

Sometimes, when installing such applications, you have the option of telling Windows that certain applications "own" certain file formats.
