What’s a Koobface?

Even if we think we have mastered how to spot the old tactics of hackers and other attackers, they create new viruses and malware so quickly that you really can never be sure you aren't being targeted. Get the scoop on the Koobface worm.

My fear about new viruses and malware, is when is it going to stop? If you know you've downloaded something harmful to your computer, you need to delete any traces of it from your computer immeditately. Of course, you unfortunately usually don't find out until it's too late.

Victoria, I honestly don't think they ever will. Things like Koobface are just like real viruses; they evolve to overcome the obstacles we throw at them. I guess it's another reason to keep your security software up to date! Hopefully, people will start to be more careful when surfing the internet, so they can avoid worms and viruses in the first place.
