This link http://www6.megafilehd.com/files/p.php?id7532-Picture58.JPEG WARNING: It is a virus/trojan/whatever. Some of my friends were infected yesterday by this. It keeps sending the same link through chat messages from the infected person's account, once the person downloads, extracts the zip and runs the jpeg file. I suspect some click jacking, but I haven't tried it out so far. I am wondering how this works, any idea?


this virus read clients facebook cookie via integration to internet browser. then, with javascript, it will command the internet browser to do click-event and send it to active friend-list using j-query included in facebook page. as standard, it send to fiendlist of infected computer as link you get. http://dfgen.com. best regards
