Do ALL social networking sites like Myspace and Facebook contain a lot of Spyware and viruses? Because my PC was turned to bright red on my computer screen saying that I was "Internet attacked" (or so what the error message said), and have been infected with a lot of Spyware and malware. I mean, I just got started on Facebook not too long ago on my laptop, and so far, I haven't had any problems with it.

Face book and my space are free standing sites and in themselves, apart from downloading cookies into your cookie file, no you can't, but you can if you start to click the links, as these sites are not produced by the same people and cannot be guaranteed as safe, this is where your viruses and malware come from.
Reply:Social networking sites My space or Face look do nt spread the spyware or viruses. It is the people who are using the system spreading the spyware or viruses and the system is weak to allow the hackers take advantage of the site.
Reply:I'm using facebook for a year now and i never face a problem like this , I think its from other program on ur pc.
I advice u to install mcafee antivirus on ur pc.
Wish u luck.
Reply:If you are worried about viruses and spyware, get Ubuntu Linux (ww.ubuntu.com) as it has no spyware and viruses and you can't get infected with window's ones.
Facebook is a lot more secure than MySpace, as virus code can't be executed easily.
MySpace lets you use HTML and JavaScript that can direct your browser to virus-infested sites.
