Facebook Says It Has Contained Malware Threat
Facebook says that it has put the brakes on the spread of a malicious software attack that was trying to propagate itself via the popular social networking site.
In an e-mail sent last night, Facebook's director of communications, Brandee Barker, wrote:
"The safety and security of our users is a top priority for Facebook. Over the past few days, we have received reports from users of spam and phishing attacks. We have also detected and contained a worm. We are investigating every report, removing false content, blocking us links and addressing the concerns of our users
