Does anyone know or can anyone explain how FB viruses (virii?) work?
For example...
I have a few of you as FB friends. A couple of weeks ago someone from a
geocaching account started to chat with me. It wasn't the person who owns that
account. Now today, I had a message in the FB inbox from CW/Shirley that also
wasn't from her. (I confirmed this with her). In the message was a link to
something that I suspect was rather "Adult" on nature.
Who has the problem? Me? Her? or FB? What are the odds that one or both of us
now have something ugly living in our computers? My scans aren't picking
anything up.
I've googled FAcebook Virus etc but not sure what to trust.
Has anyone have experience with this that they could just point us in the right
direction.
This could be in everyone's best interest. While I only have 5 cachers as
friends, I can see that those 5 have a ton more.
