Distracting Beach Babes

This appears to be another form of the “Sexiest Video Ever” malware assault which spread on Facebook last weekend, according to security firm Sophos. That installed adware onto victims’ computers which serves ads onto PCs and can’t be deleted. The way to avoid this is to delete the message from your page, change your password and review your Facebook application settings, and maybe, for extra security, scan your PC with an anti-virus package. If you see this video on Facebook today, do not click the link: Doing so, and downloading a linked file, will result in malware being installed on your computer. If you see the video on your wall, remove it. If you’ve clicked the video, meanwhile, run a virus and adware scan on your computer. And of course, be more careful about clicking suspicious-looking links in future. Thumbnail image courtesy of iStockphoto, Antagain
