Facebook Virus Alert For Sunday Surfers

There is a link to google videos going around face book. It will appear as if a friend has sent it to you through their private inbox. As a result of this people are recieving a nice and stressful sunday infection.

I recieved this message and good old firefox flashed the site up with one of it's red warnings. Of course I went ahead and clicked on ignore this warning because I wanted to see the nature of what was being offered. Sure enough I was prompted to download a missing flash object.

A quick visit to adobe and I was sure that I was up to date, so I've decided to blow the whistle where I can, as many people will assume that safety is a default luxury on a place like facebook, especially things that are chanelled through the private mail of a trusted friend!
