Social Networking sites (Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, LiveJournal, etc.) are under attack by a variation of the Koobface worm which began to spread in August ‘08. This new variant, tracked as WORM_KOOBFACE.AZ has the potential of a fast infection rate. Most importantly, after propagating itself from the infected device, the Worm remains active on the user’s computer transmitting the computer’s data, settings, control information, and system information to over 300 international collection sites.
