WORM / VIRUSSENDING MESSASGES, COMMENTS, BULLETINS

If spam messages are being sent from your Friendster account and you did not send them, or if you are receiving spam messages from your friends (and they said they did not send them) then this could indicate that you or your friend’s computer has been infected by the recently discovered “Koobface” virus.

Take one of these steps to correct the issue:

If spam messages are being sent from your Friendster account and you did not send them:

1. Immediately change the password of your Friendster account

2. Run an antivirus program on your computer to disinfect this virus and prevent further infection. DO NOT use or install Antivirus 2008/ Antivirus 2009; this is malicious software

If you are receiving spam messages from your friends (and they SAID they did not send them):

1. Mark the message as spam in your Friendster account

2. Inform your friend they may have been infected by the “Koobface” virus 3. Have your friend change their Friendster account password immediately Have your friend run an antivirus program on their computer to disinfect this virus and prevent further infection.

DO NOT use or install Antivirus 2008/ Antivirus 2009; this is malicious software
