Wear a condom...facebook is like the whore of the internet, everybody uses it. Be sure to use protection when logging in.

Don't trust shared links....
For example if the link is from youtube then it's ok but if it's a website you don't know then it's not ok.... Facebook is full of viruses if you don't know what you are doing.. Viruses spread in facebook like they do in emails.... Most people visit every piece of trash their friends share with them and then when they scan for viruses, they are like omg why do i have viruses i only visit facebook and youtube -_- |

Facebook is rampant with Cybercrime
and is only getting worse as more people start using it And this is old news: http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE55S55820090629 The most current scam is Firesheep which is a Firefox addon that anyone can install in their Firefox browser, & use it to hack into other Facebook accounts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firesheep The addon was actually developed with good intentions - to show how insecure facebook is, & force the developers of facebook to secure their site a little better. To show you how easy it is to Hack into your facebook account, you can install the addon here http://www.webtlk.com/2010/11/03/downloa...r-firefox/ There is a way to find out if someone is using Firesheep to try to hack into your facebook account, or any insecure account for that matter. It is called BlackSheep https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/253994/ This will not work on Internet Explorer, you have to be using Firefox. |

I don't think face book has viruses. It's just the pop-ups and free offer scams you click on. Just be careful what you click on. Also so run malwarebytes scan often.
