Damnit Ramnit isn't on Facebook. Is it?

Unread postby Sludge3000 » January 19th, 2012, 10:46 am

Facebook has downplayed the significance of Ramnit, a recently discovered worm that attempts to steal login credentials for the social networking site.

It said an adapted version of the bank account-raiding virus is not actually spreading through the site itself. However Seculert, the security biz that discovered a Ramnit command-and-control server earlier this month, maintains that the malware is spreading on Facebook via links to websites that exploit security holes to infect machines.


Story @ The Register

Personally I wish that companies wouldn't argue over things like this and just got on with helping the people affected. At least there are some honest and helpful people here at MRU.
