"Hilarious Video" leads to Facebook Ownage

If you get a "Hilarious Video" update on your wall, it might be a malware attack. Details here http://mashable.com/2010/05/29/faceb...larious-video/

Quote:
when clicked, a form appears requesting your Facebook login.

The attack then returns you to Facebook, installs an app called ?Media Player HD?, and asks you to download the ?FLV player? ? doing so installs malware on your machine. It gets worse: Depending on your location, you may also be presented with a contest to win an iPad ? if you just enter your home address.

To avoid getting caught, simply remove the ?hilarious video? if you find it on your Facebook (Facebook) wall. If you see it elsewhere on Facebook, don?t click it ? and of course remember the obvious rule: Don?t enter your Facebook login anywhere other than Facebook.com.
