I have a virus on Facebook chat so it's sending messages with a link to everyone that's online. Help? - ShootCakes! - 02-28-2013 02:23 PM

I clicked on a link that my friend sent me and now randomly, while I'm on Facebook it will send some link to everyone. Then say I'm offline. My sister said it's a virus and I don't know how to get rid of it. It's really annoying, because I don't send the stupid link. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Well for one delete your cookies and then stop using facebook whatever that is.

did you join any groups or apps right before this started? i had a few ppl sending me things like this and it was an app that basically sent out emails to all your facebook friends. you would need to go to Accounts>Privacy Settings>Apps and Websites and edit/delete the app/group

check the name of the link or words in it to see if it gives info as to what app it could be.
