Hi,
I’ve received it . Wasn’t aware of it. No no anti-virus finds it… The FB doesn’t open or it says that it won’t open browser can’t establish secure connection to the server. I don’t know what else to do? Has any other had similar problem or have the idea how to settle it?
Thank you very much!!!

I have received at least six of emails saying”You will not believe what this man did!” from someone not even on my friends list,or any of Facebook for that matter,but if you see it,DO NOT OPEN IT,because it may be a variant of the Koobface virus

Okay, so my other computer got the Koobface virus, but my virus scanner found it and deleted and /or quaratined them, and I changed my password and all that. This morning that computer will not boot up, it starts to turn on, but never finishes the boot up, just becomes a black screen. Now what do we do?

I just received 2 messages from a friend in the Messages section of my Facebook page. The subject lines read, “Somebody upload a video with you on utube, should see.” and “Yes! your ass got caught as well.” I deleted these, but it seems that Koobface or a variant is still alive and well, as you at Scopes have reported!

You can find this kind of thing on any network, Facebook is just a popular target due to it’s traffic and non tech savvy userbase. Facebook should really try to help promote the safety of their users.

I did click the link and sent it out to most of my friend list. Fortunately, I caught it and my computer was not affected (thus far). My FB account, however continues to randomly send out the message desptie changing the password and email.

I got one today from a Corey, Cindarella with no subject line but the message starts out “My computer won’t let me open this, what is it?”…. I deleted the email before opening it. But there is no Corey, Cindarella on my friends list and I actually couldn’t find one on Facebook at all —
