Okay so I am just wondering if anyone else is having problems will Trojans trying to take over their computer. I dont go to any other site but like faebook, wiki, this site, and pages to watch tv shoes... like the real sites. So well ive come to the conclusion that it has wiki or ffxi that is over taking my computer.

IS anyone else having this issue. Im not too worried about getting hacked becuase i have awesome security and monitor my lappy very closely but i do want to know where it is coming from.

Thanks for your help ^^

Do you use any of the apps?

Facebook is filled with trojans and such. It really is a terrible site, computer wise.

Most apps don't carry trojans. Make sure to check the rating of said app before download. Facebook is a terrible emo site, but it carries very few security risks.

If you see an app called 'Super fan hack computer chan' then obviously don't download it. Computer illiteracy is the reason for 99% of problems on people's computers.

Facebook has had some problems with hijacked accounts sending out malicious links.

I blame idiots, cz I can bet most of you would click on that suspicious looking link from someone who wants you to see their pics.

So yeah, stupid people will get infected.
