Sneakiest Computer Viruses
The Facebook Trojan, aka Troj/Dloadr-BPL
Facebook users have probably seen it happen – a friend posts a link to a Web site on other people's walls, urging them to see a funny video or find out who has a crush on them. Just as with spam e-mails, the link takes you to a bogus site that tells you to download a newer version of Flash, which turns out to be Troj/Dloadr-BPL. This virus then lets hackers take over your computer to spread spam and malware. Basically, criminals are using Facebook because they think users are more likely to visit a link if a friend tells them to. The solution? Don't click it, or better yet, stop using those annoying Facebook Wall programs anyway. Be particularly wary of videos posted by people who don't usually send videos (at least to you).

I am an avid user of MySpace and recently came across this message in my inbox from one of my friends, Did you know that your MySpace picture is all over flipbit.com. Not knowing what flipbit was, I investigated just to find that this site is a virus site, thank goodness I didn't got to that site. Beware all!!!
