Removing EXIF data

All I have to say is Jhead…http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/
Simple enough to use to remove EXIF data from your images…

Man, You’ll never know what is hidden in your images until you take a look around. (http://blogs.23.nu/disLEXia/stories/5751

Actually my reason for removing the EXIF data is that it  was it was totally messing with the image re-sizer in my picture gallery. I was going a little nuts for a few hours trying to figure out what the heck was going on. Anyways, after pouring over the Internet, I found out what it was.. I guess Microsoft’s fancy GetThumbnailImage() method will use the thumbnail if present, but have not idea how to tell it NOT to use it so I just decided for goodness sakes and for security to remove all the data so I don’t also have to worries about transmitting GPS data along with my silly pictures!
