    Lots of people are getting infected on my friends list, I've explained to them what has happened and to email all their friends telling them not to open the mail.

    I don't like facebook at all. Bebo had it's good points but the spam and sh!t put me well off it.
    All facebook is good for is the photo sharing. People don't really seem to interact on it as much as they did on bebo, it's all "someone added someone else as a friend" and "Suchandsuch say's: Oh I drank too much last night :(" And I don't like blue:pac:

    Bebo has brought me closer to family and I've discovered new family i didn't know about, I also use it to message people i don't see anymore and see how they are getting along.

    The activity has certainly died down a lot lately, And all the spam and fake profiles being set up is annoying, I hope the makers can find a way around all of this.

    Hacker =! Cracker.

    DEFINITION - Hacker is a term used by some to mean "a clever programmer" and by others, especially those in popular media, to mean "someone who tries to break into computer systems."

    1) Eric Raymond, compiler of The New Hacker's Dictionary, defines a hacker as a clever programmer. A "good hack" is a clever solution to a programming problem and "hacking" is the act of doing it. Raymond lists five possible characteristics that qualify one as a hacker, which we paraphrase here:

    * A person who enjoys learning details of a programming language or system
    * A person who enjoys actually doing the programming rather than just theorizing about it
    * A person capable of appreciating someone else's hacking
    * A person who picks up programming quickly
    * A person who is an expert at a particular programming language or system, as in "Unix hacker"

    DEFINITION - A cracker is someone who breaks into someone else's computer system, often on a network; bypasses passwords or licenses in computer programs; or in other ways intentionally breaches computer security. A cracker can be doing this for profit, maliciously, for some altruistic purpose or cause, or because the challenge is there. Some breaking-and-entering has been done ostensibly to point out weaknesses in a site's security system.

    The term "cracker" is not to be confused with "hacker". Hackers generally deplore cracking. However, as Eric Raymond, compiler of The New Hacker's Dictionary notes, some journalists ascribe break-ins to "hackers."

    A classic story of the tracking down of a cracker on the Internet who was breaking into U.S. military and other computers is told in Clifford Stoll's The Cuckoo's Egg.

    I doubt it to be honest, I think it's on its last legs. The majority of people are using Facebook now, except maybe those under 18 or thereabouts.

    It is sent from your mates account, therefore the message is under their name. The wording is a bit generic though.

    I actually clicked the first one I got due to a bastard coincidence. It came from a mate who lives in the same apartment block as a cute Polish nutjob we had went on the lash with. The mail I got from my mate had a link ending .pl , with the body something like "really funny video of u at d party". Considering it was a Polish URL and the last time she saw me was at 4am a few previous Saturdays when I had her rolling laughing in her apartment by playing/singing rebel songs on the guitar pissed drunk (ignoring the fact I cant actually play :pac: ) I assumed she had videoed me and uploaded it to what appeared to be a youtube-like site :( Thankfully my anti virus wouldnt let me touch it.

    And thankfully there was no video :) I was brickin that I was about to become one of these flavour of the month net videos. You know, Star Wars kid, that dickhead crying about Britney Spears, that kind of vid.

    Bebo related, anyone having trouble uploading photos this evening?

    Ha, Legend!

    Got another one around 4. It was obviously not him cos he lives far away from our school and we finish at 4.

    Read the charter before posting again.
    Read some of my posts before you go and give me an excuse to ban you.
    Right now, I'm letting it slide for being the most pathetic rick rolling ever.

    You should have mentioned facebook. He would have been epically confused at that.

    Then tell him to google it!!! Then, run

    "To guard against automated systems trying to abuse Bebo we have implemented a number of safety measures.

    I hate this! Why won't it bring you back to where you were before you entered the word??
