WARNING Rootkit virus embedded in video via comment spam
Lately, I've had to delete about half a dozen spam comments from various entries on my LJ & at other communities. They've all shared a commonality: a single embed & link to a YouTube video in Portuguese titled "Camarate: A confissao fe Farinha Simoes" or in English titled "Dying call from prison. Details about Portugal Premier Minister air-crash!"
DO NOT PLAY THE VIDEO.
The video contains a Windows rootkit virus that'll steal your personal info.
Known accounts that generate these spammy malware comments:
1. Hover your cursor over the little
userhead next to the username.

2. In the box that pops up, click the "Ban user" boxes that apply. (Community owners & moderators see the "in my communities" ticky box.)

3. Click the "Report a Bot" link to notify LJ admin of the spam account.
