Virus on FaceBook and MySpace

I just received a warning that there is a trojan worm is now spreading like wildfire on Facebook and MySpace. The name of the work is known as koobface.

It is designed to steal your info, invade your system and shut it down. In order to avoid it:

• do not open the link to Barack Obama Clinton Scandal. 
• Do not accept any friend request from SmartGirl15. 

I am not sure how accurate the warning is but better to safe then sorry.
