Fake Codec uses false Facebook page

Scammers are using a fake Facebook page with a fake �Flash Player� update window to infect victims� machines. Visiting various malicious sites results in:

Clicking on the �update� installs Trojan-Downloader.Win32.CodecPack.2GCash.Gen that can then install a variety of stuff, none of it good.


Trojan-Downloader.Win32.CodecPack.2GCash.Gen has been around since December.
