Saint_Michael 3 Report post Posted December 6, 2008 Although this attack isn't new because its been done before on Myspace a few thousand times, but the idea is for you to watch this video someone sent but in order to see it you need to update your flash player. The name of the virus is called the Koobface virus and so jst like I said in order for this virus to kick in you would have to download that flash player update for it to kick in your computer becomes a zombie computer for a botnet and usually to get rid of all traces of a virus/zombie/worm is to reinstall the computer. Even though some security software will pick them up usually it takes a bit more effort and so if your a facebook user that got tricked by this then head over here to find out what to do to get this worm remove from your computer if you know if your infected.SOURCEhttp://www.pcworld.com/article/155017/facebook_virus_zombie.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
donov 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 Uh oh, there is a Facebook virus out there that turns your PC into a zombie. Thankfully,I know exactly what to do in that situation.If you've received a message like that through Facebook or MySpace, you may have been exposed to the "Koobface" virus. "Koobface" comes through an e-mail sent by one of your social networking site friends inviting you to scope out a video.If you like to protect your computer and your network whit the most-cost effective security solition for ISA Server download the trial version of GFi Web Monitor!!!
