Facebook users are being targeting by a malicious virus that can wipe out your computer.

The new attack uses a two-layer approach.

First robbing you of your Facebook user name and password.

And then installing a dangerous virus.

And it's very scary what this latest virus can do, and how easily it can infect your computer.

Then you want be getting back on facebook, these things keep cropping up, because we put spam blocking on our email, so no theyre going after facebook.

I got Koobface a while back, when I got a request from a friend, opened the video, then fell for the "you need to install a new version of ...." scam

It took about 4 spyware programs to eventually get rid of it.

Then I closed my facebook account (I never used it really anyway, just had it to be able to see other peoples pages
