So while at work I stumbled upon this article talking about a new virus on facebook called Koobace, sounds cute right? Apparently it can do some real gaht damage to your comp.This is how it spreads:
Koobface spreads by sending notes to friends of someone whose PC has been infected. The messages, with subject headers like, "You look just awesome in this new movie," direct recipients to a website where they are asked to download what it claims is an update of Adobe Systems Inc's Flash player.
If they download the software, users end up with an infected computer, which then takes users to contaminated sites when they try to use search engines from Google, Yahoo, MSN and Live.com, according McAfee.
So be careful kids and look out for that. Check out the full article here
