Completely off-topic with anything to do with Spain, however very important as I'm sure lots of EOS users actually use Facebook (Justin and myself just for starters!)

There are new Facebook scams circulating as of this last weekend, and some include Malware.

Here is an article at Information Week on Facebook Virus Spread via Photo Albums.


 

Edit - Sorry! I know the link includes an advert, but you can close it down!

Thanks for the TechNo Tip Off.

Every time that I'm about to sign up to Facebook I see something like this and  go "Uh -oh-maybe not today thanks" Apart from which-I can't really think what I would use it for.

My partner did sign me up for Twitter-but I've yet to have a Twit- (if that's what it's called)-maybe I've got a lack of imagination.

But then again, as I sit here in cold/wet/windy Lincolnshire I find it very easy to imagine being at our house in Valencia where I see it's forecast to be 21 degrees today.
