Koobface

Well, it appears to be a newly morphed version of the old Koobface worm from last year. Just google "koobface" for more info. There is also apparently a new variation which is attacking MACs. It was written up in BBCNews today. So be diligent. I was able to get on Facebook on my Mac just now so it looks like Facebook doesn't even know it's going on. Don't open anything from me or anything from anyone you don't hear from often. I just ran a thorough scan and did a system restore to Friday's settings and still no Facebook access. I can't find anything new on the web either. I wonder if there is a "real time" virus reporting site out there. I can't find one.

Facebook

This afternoon I started to recieve notices from Facebook "Friends" about a video or film which contained "funny" footage of me. I continued to receive more and more even from people I did not know. Well, there is no film or video. This is a very sophisticated Prank/Virus [I don't know what to call it] which will evetually lead to making Facebook inaccessable. If I so much as try to log on or link to Facebook from an email my internet connection is lost. I can do everything else on the internet but I can't go to Facebook. I had received a couple of "trojan" warnings when I originally tried to find out what was going on so I did a "disk cleanup" to get rid of them. This action, apparently led to my present dilema. I don't have any more info but I will follow up on it. Just don't try to access any videos on your Facebook page. And NO! I did not send you a note on Facebook.
