    Uh oh. I think I may stay away from YouTube until this situation is resolved.

    Is this spyware able to spread through Firefox? Or is does it only affect IE browsers?

    How does it get users to install it? By clicking on the links or simply watching the YouTube video?

    Ever since an LJ friend told me that one of the YouTube vids I posted had a big obnoxious ad in it (that I could never see, for some reason), I have been trying to use DailyMotion more often. Besides, the video quality tends to be much nicer there. Must be encoding from PAL or something
