Thanx for the link JG.

About the Facebook virus - I've heard about it too from my friends. They say that you get a PM from one of your friends (that friend never sent it tho, it's the virus) and in that PM you are told to visit a page. If you open that link - THAT'S how you get the virus. So basically you just gotta be very careful about clicking links to other websites. If you arent sure about a certain PM, then ask your friend if s/he sent it.
