Do not open any message with an attachment called “Invitation FACEBOOK,” regardless of who sent it. It is a virus that opens an “Olympic torch” that burns the whole hard disc (C) of your computer.

This virus will be received from someone you had in your address book. That’s why you should send this message to all your contacts. It is better to receive this email 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.

If you receive an email called “Invitation FACEBOOK,” though sent by a friend, do not open it: delete it immediately. It is one of the worst viruses to “spin off” from the recent Koobface virus.

As well, be on the lookout for a new virus that was discovered recently and has been classified by Microsoft as among the most destructive viruses ever. It is a “Trojan Horse” that asks you to install an adobe flash plug-in. Once you install it, your computer will have increasing problems, including loss of files and data. And there is no repair or patch yet for it. The virus apparently destroys the “zero” sector of the hard drive, where the vital information of their function is saved.
