ReplyDeleteTrue James.., 55,000 new viruses each day, 2,300 per hour, 38 per minute, and one every two seconds, according to the AV-Test(http://www.av-test.org). And also day by day they change the behavior, infection techniques and self-protection strategies. So it's better keep in touch with these new techniques in order to defend. In this post I focused on this topical FB virus only. But I hope to discuss different kind of virus techniques and defending strategies on future post. Tnx for the discussion. :)
