If you build websites and need to perform browser check, and you need to check on Safari, it's unwise not to be aware of such issue, which I am pretty sure, nobody in the English speaking world aware of. As for "dangerous", I am not fully sure about it, my warning is more a "this is a porn site kind of warning" IMHO. You can see from the youtube videos links of the behavior of "infection" to tell whether it's dangerous or not. I have visited ten of pages of such Facebook pages in the past few months, and symptom occurs in Safari only, in My Mac, iPad and iPhone Safari. I have run a system wide virus check on my Mac, unless the software is incapable of finding any thing or there is no infection. tee *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***
[ADMIN] THREAD CLOSED Re: [WSG] is this infection of Safari or FB page?
We're offtopic here and I don't think putting the question of 'are these links dangerous?' is anything this group is qualified to discuss. (OK, maybe *you* are, but its certainly outside the group remit.) Closed.

Not only off topic, it also appears to be giving us a link to something dangerous (I disabled it, BTW). On 16/03/2011, at 6:23 PM, tee wrote: > Sorry about this post!

[WSG] is this infection of Safari or FB page?
Sorry about this post! I couldn't get any answer from anyone, any Mac user from the web community that I know of, and my enquiry to Apple as well as Facebook went silence too. For those who have no Mac system, these are the videos I captured. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwZxjqlUM2Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cn6yFCROa-4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVwoIF8BHMw Warning!
