Beware of the Facebook Worm...



Just read about this on an Orlando Sentinel tech blog...

According to the post, this "Koobface" worm variant is posing as your friends. What it will do is send you a message, asking if you want to see a video of them or that they have a video you are in.

Once prompted, a site will open that looks suspiciously like a YouTube page...it's not! Keep your guard up, as this worm is attacking other social networking sites as well - MySpace, Bebo, Friendster and Hi5.
