ADVICE FOR THOSE WHO ALMOST OR DEFINITELY FELL FOR THOSE FACEBOOK KOOBFACE MESSAGES! WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK AGAIN! AND DO NOT CLICK ON THE ADOBE FLASH PLAYER BUTTON OR ANYWHERE IN THE SITE! IF YOU DO, THE DOWNLOAD DIALOG BOX WILL POP UP AND ANOTHER BOX SAYING THAT A VIRUS FOUND WILL POP UP (If you have Avast antivirus software) PLEASE NOTE THAT THE YOUTUBE PAGE SHOWN WHEN YOU CLICK THE LINK IS DIFFERENT FROM THIS ONE! IF YOU DOWNLOAD IT, THE VIRUS WILL INFECT...........
LOL. I was 10 when I got on FB for the first time. And that virus was going around. So my friend got hacked on there.. and I ded't know it.. and the hacker gave me a link. Like "Watch me eat a whole hotdog!" {Insert link here} and I was like: WTF. And I closed the chat window. Lol. I don't use fb a lot because I don't wanna get my computer fhucked up. :P
@steriogram007 10 Year olds aren't all retarded. Yes. I agree lots of them are, but not all. I've had a facebook for a little over a year and still haven't got a virus.
Besides,people wouldn't get the virus if they learned not to open messages that they know couldn't possibly be real. :\
@xCoconutBra yeah I know it was just an analogy... I bet that most people that have a facebook account are probably competent enough to recognize a fake message :)
@TheMiniclip007 First off I said RETARDED, and since you're not retarded then this shouldn't offend you. I am not retarded since I did not actually CLICK the link, therefore I can't get infected.
koobface isn't that big of a deal all you have to do is have malware bytes and update it every once and a while do a full scan and it finds the infections
@branden5197 Yes, most viruses u can do that, but Koobface blocks all the websites with antiviruses on them, so u cant take it off with most websites, there are very little websties that can tell you/scan the actual Koobface virus
Yes, that's d real koobface worm. According 2 my research & viewing d websites about viruses, d koobface worm was sent in inbox, and d titles of that message including LOL, Paris Hilton Tosses Dwarf On The Street, and My friend catched [sic] you on hidden cam. then don't click that IP add. bcoz u are redirected 2 d website that is not unaffilaiated wd facebook. Like SystemOtaku said, d website requests u 2 install d purported adobe flash player. & after downloading it, d virus will infect ur PC
Does it infect Macs?
