Zango spyware on Facebook

by Trench on January 3rd, 2008

Facebook hit by adware attack:
The scummy spyware company Zango is at it again. It’s been a while since we last heard about them. So far I’ve posted about them infiltrating MySpace and Orkut so it was only a matter of time before they turned up on Facebook…

Facebook users are being warned about a new application on the social networking site that contains adware.

‘Secret Crush’ contains a download of the Zango adware program which automatically sends itself to five friends.

It has already infected three per cent of Facebook users, over one million computers, according to security firm Fortinet.

Got it? So do not under any circumstance install an app on your Facebook called ‘Secret Crush’. Here it is on Facebook. I’m providing a link so you know what to look for. If you’ve already added it to your Facebook then your friends are going to hate you.
