Are some facebook games unsafe? - ForsakenRose88 - 06-19-2014 10:45 PM
In the last few days I have been trying out facebook games, around 10 of them, and I got a nasty virus (Antivirus Soft) which had to be cafefully handpicked out of my pc with the help of 5 different pc scanner apps. I don't think this is a coincidence. Is there anywhere that would tell me what games are unsafe? I'm confused because A LOT of people play these games.

It has nothing to do with most of the games - it is the ads on the side of your page that facebook allows. The developers of these games can do nothing about them - it is all done by facebook (not the virus - the allowing of the ads that contain viruses)
You should consider Getting Mozilla Firefox with the AdBlock Plus Add-On. It's free & and much safer than IE.

It depends on the safety of the games. Not all games are unsafe. You have to see for yourself.
