You don’t know you’re framed

THE MYSPACE page of American R&B diva Alicia Keys has been hacked, using a technique experts say is highly cunning and likely to catch out many users.

Roger Thompson on the Exploit Prevention Labs Blog says the hackers use an image background href so that when users click the wrong part of a page, they are encouraged to install software that then puts rootkits on their computers.

"It’s a really interesting technique and its going to catch a lot of people because this is very media-rich page as are most Myspace pages there’s every expectation you’re going to see a video,” says Thompson on a Youtube explanation of the compromise. µ

That is why I don't do Myspace! Crap like that happens. X_X

I don't really do Myspace either. I used to but the servers kept crashing so I gave up. I haven't done another blog thing yet.

Myspace been having a lot of webcam sites spam people's inbox, and comment box a lot. Plus, It has viruses and spyware on their server.

I like http://bebo.com more as a social site then myspace.

i don't use myspace, bored with the mass amount of spammers


though as froggy stated bebo is an okay network, and lacks many of the dumber nations

Does Bebo have the options of templates and what not like Myspace? Is it as good as Myspace is?

bebo has skins, plugins,


i think it's better than myspace personally, less spam, less idiots less crap
