This is becoming a big problem and it’s time that Facebook step up and moderate what Apps are shared on their network. Facebook and its 600 million plus users is the perfect playground for cyber criminals to spread their malicious viruses, Trojans and Malware. The problem is users are receiving shares from friends who are unaware that the app (application) there sharing contains malicious data.
The latest app comes in the form of a “Free Gift” or “Surprise” and this app drops a Trojan on the user’s machine that launches a very nasty virus called “System Tool 2011.” If you are one of the unlucky people that got this bad boy, you are in for a lot of grief trying to remove it from your computer, but no worries, I have you covered.
It’s important that even when your friends share apps with you, don’t assume they know it’s safe. Don’t be the guinea pig, let other users allow the app and if enough time passes with no negative feedback, than I would try it out, but be careful!

Very sad news. Every user needs extra care to prevent virus distribution via Facebook. Recently I heard a service called Face Infected (www.faceinfected.com), which claims that it can eliminate all viruses from infected facebook page. Anyone knows more about it.

Thanks for sharing this information about (www.faceinfected.com). I will research this further and if worthy, it may become an article.
Facebook does have issues with personal information, and security so this does not surprise me that it will now nave big issues with virus.
