Is anybody else getting McAfee warning pages when using Facebook? - Chanello - 10-15-2012 08:44 PM

Lately, I've been getting redirected to a warning page from McAfee when using Facebook. It is really annoying and I don't know why it keeps doing that. Why is this happening and can I do anything to stop it?

There are a lot of viruses and spyware associated with Facebook. Scan your computer with McAfee and also with a spyware remover (e.g., Ad-aware, etc.). Avoid using any third-party applications that trigger the McAfee warning. I have actually gotten Trojans from using FarmTown! So don't completely trust third-party applications. Research them online a little before installing them.
