Google's Orkut is infected with Virus...!

Orkut is currently one of the best and popular online community that is designed to make your social life more active and stimulating.Orkut's social network can help you maintain existing relationships with pictures and messages, and establish new ones by reaching out to people you've never met before...
Many people spend hours on Orkut in chatting with friends and making new friends but they don't even know that they may get infected with cross-site scripting worm that has alredy spread overnight through Google's Orkut social network..
You get an email notification (or find out on Orkut) that you have a new scrapbook entry, There's no need to click on anything, just viewing it does the trick. The scrap deletes itself, and adds you to the Orkut Community "Infectados pelo VĂ­rus do Orkut" (which roughly means "Infected by the Orkut Virus" in Portuguese.). this group's aim is to gain members at a rate of at least one hundred per minute.
I got the news from Darkreading.com, here they explain in very clearly in detail..
At this time you might be thinking of getting a protection against this but you need not worry, just check technosocial, it will tell you protect yourself against this...
