If you have any *.jpg.vbs files on your computer it means you HAVE been
infected by the worm.  Unless some yahoo came on your computer and renamed
them to mess with you.

If you have IE5 OR Win 98 you have vbs host.  In order for the worm to
spread you have to have Outlook, but not to just get infected.  If you ran
the attachment, you got infected.
