That stinks! Yes, FB is chalk full of viruses and they usually come in video's. If anyone ever gets a video in an email, don't open it. Not to be crude but they are usually titled something like "wait til you see how good your ass looks in this video"...LOL! Somehow, these hackers get into someone's addresses and sends emails out to all of their friends on FB. I have had many sent to me. I haven't gotten sucked in that way but one time, I clicked on something (I don't even remember what) and a big message came up that said "you have been infected by the trojan virus". There was a button that said "click scan to have it removed" so I did and whammo...the virus was installed. I brought my computer to an IT friend of mine to fix it. Of course, he yelled at me for clicking on something I wasn't sure of. If that ever happens again, I know to just shut the computer down. Actually, it did happen again and I just shut down and when I came back online, everything was fine. In that case, it was a virus known as "malware" where they are actually trying to sell you an anti-virus program to remove the virus they installed. But in other cases, it just seems that people install these viruses just for the fun of it. Aren't humans fun? I prefer dogs![]()
