No ? It spreads through files, not display pictures. Read the link you gave, it says

C:\Beautiful Ass.pif

C:\Me & you pic!.pif
C:\Me Pissed!.pif

C:\She Could Fit her Ass in a Teacup.pif
C:\she's fuckin fit.pif
C:\titanic2.jpg.pif


Spreads by sending a copy of itself with one of the above file names via MSN instant messenger.
It sends a message to you in which you have to accept to download the file (.pif or .scr) before it can get on your computer. It doesn't spread through display pictures, there is no way it can.
