Orkut Users, be careful!

"Bom Sabado". These two words are stealing your privacy, sending viruses and torjons in your computer and hacking your orkut account. Whenever you see such scrap, click on "stop" of your browser and delete it. If you'll not click on stop, your computer will get hang and they will steal everything. Be careful!

Thanks, for sharing.In India Orkut is very popular.But I don't understand, without our wish how a javascript can hang our computer and how it can install viruses.Modern browsers detects the scripts which are not responding very well and asks us to let them continue to execute or stop.

In past I used a java script code in Orkut to send scrap to all friend and it made me join multiple communities automatically.So such viruses(having java script code) can damage our profile and steal information from a website but how they can infect a PC?

It just hangs your browser for few seconds .That's all .By this time they will have all your cookies from your pc.And in addition to that some 6 communities gets added to your profile and all your friends also get affected.It doesn't cause any harm to your PC
