FACEBOOK Virus/Worm is out!

Viruses Hide Behind Facebook/MySpace Identity
Aug 5, 08 11:41 AM PDT

Social networking fans, beware! There is a virus going around that parades around as messages from your 'friends' from your MySpace or Facebook accounts, but in reality is an extremely destructive virus. Known as Win32.Koobecaf.a, it sends malicious content to MySpace users, while Facebook fans will have to contend with a variant known as Win32.Koobecaf.b. Be on your guard always, put on your thinking cap before you click on just about any link, and do keep your computer updated with the latest anti-virus software (and definitions) always

So FB has been infiltrated by viruses now...I knew the time would come eventually since myspace has been plagued!

I saw this message today and thought it was legit for a split second then I saw the link when I dragged my cursor over it before clicking on it. Thank god I didn't!

If anybody clicks a link with the word "catched" in it they deserve not only to get this virus but to be executed by lethal injection.

Hahaha!

Thanks John

Just got sent that shit too. Thought it was a joke at first, 'cause it was from a TA. Text started with a "WOW!!! LOL." Then the "My friend catched you..."

Funny stuff.
