Contacting Facebook about a virus on their website through an ad?

[Dest]

I was on 101 eggs + more, minding my own business, I noted a rather funny ad, It said "do you know who wants your face book profile? Download so and so"

Then pop ups galore started popping up on my screen all from

http://antivirus-scanner-v1.com

Now, I am one huge suspicious person, so I searched it in google before closing the window, I am currently running an anti-virus warning system.

The results that came up were "Download spy bot to get rid of antivirus-scanner-v1.com"

I trust spy bot, so this is quite a revelation.

Any ideas how to contact Facebook?

Firstly, I *think* the email is help@facebook.com although, don't expect a reply anytime soon.

Next up, there's all kinds of malicious code in some of the ads - you should NEVER click on an add.

Finally, you need Adblock Plus.

Here's how to get it...

Firstly, it only works in Firefox. Internet Explorer does not have this feature.

If you do not have Firefox already, you can get it for free here: http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/

Once you have firefox, you can get Adblock Plus from here : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865

Click on 'Add To Firefox'.
When it's installed, close Firefox down and then re-start it.

Not only will you no longer see ads, but, your page loading time will increase...
