A Facebook virus can be a real pain as it can infect your computer, steal your personal data, create havoc on your account and later infect other users. Here comes the galewher.com Facebook virus which is very clever and at the moment we don’t know how it works considering the fact that the message is different depending on the user. Some user are receiving message which says that they can win some bonus Christmas money, while others text say that Galewher dot C0m will help AdSense publishers to earn extra money.

According to Play-This, behind the Galewher.com Facebook virus is the Koobface Trojan. Note: Please don’t download anything while searching information about the Koobface Trojan or the Galewher.com Facebook virus. It seems like Facebook has acknowledged the existence of the virus and it’s trying to fix the problem.

Now, we don’t have a confirmation but some users are reporting that the Galewher.c0m virus has extended from Facebook to Twitter therefore you should be careful on what links you click especially when URL shorteners are so popular.

We, here at TheBlogIsMine dot Com recommend you to be careful and don’t click on any suspicious links even if they’re coming from your friends or other people whom you trust. [via Play-This]
