Would Like Some Tips
« on: September 25, 2010, 04:08:50 AM »
Hello. After my sister's recent infection, and my Dad's worrying about Koobface and other Facebook malware, I was wondering if there are specific things to avoid on Facebook, so I can pass it on to them. Thank you.

Thank you. That's exactly what I was looking for. I'm also trying to get them to have layers of security, instead of their Norton suite.

My sister is also constantly posting things she likes to her Wall, and all are links to other sites like:

http://www.quotefame.info/60647/

and http://likans.bon.biz/p.php?p=29964

I've clicked on all and nothing bad happens, but I've been wondering if these can be bad?
