If you get a public or private message saying "Hey, check out you in this video" and then what looks like a YouTube link, you should have the common sense not to click it, if you do it asks you to download 'Flash Player' which is really a virus. Many of my friends stupidly have it. :rolleyes:

This doesn't affect those on a Mac though. It is an .exe file.

Hehe so true, Max. I would like to think that Max, I mean Macs, are more secure, but more importantly, they are a smaller target than the millions of Windows machines out there.
