MONTREAL–A virus has been infecting popular social networking sites MySpace and Facebook, tech experts said yesterday.
On Facebook, the virus is causing email messages to be sent to people on "friends" lists asking them to watch a video supposedly on YouTube. A user has to download what purports to be a plug-in to watch the video.
