Facebook video virus Auto messages. How to remove? (Uninstall guide)

      

Explanation on how Facebook virus spreads

“My private video” virus spreads so quickly because the majority of Facebook users fail to identify these posts and messages as deceptive and malicious content. You should NEVER click on posts or links that your friends send to you if you have even the slightest suspicion that your friend would not share such content on Facebook.

Unfortunately, many computer users click on such content EXACTLY because they cannot believe that their friend has shared such post. Unfortunately, clicking on these malicious video links downloads malware into the computer that takes control over the victim’s Facebook account.

• To avoid Facebook video virus infiltration, you should not click on suspicious posts or links sent by your friends. If such content raises your suspicion, ask your friend whether he/she shared it by their choice.
• Another thing you should know is that videos shared on this social network (no matter if they are uploaded directly to the site or if they are shared via Youtube) play after you click on them. If after clicking on a video you are redirected to some suspicious website that asks you to provide permission to access your Facebook timeline or to download an application to your computer, most likely that Facebook post contained a malicious link.
• You may also install Facebook video virus along with other free programs. We strongly recommend you to avoid downloading software from questionable file sharing websites, because you risk downloading a bundled software. Bundled software is basically a pack of programs, which includes one main program and several optional downloads that can be installed alongside the main program. These optional downloads usually appear to be dangerous applications, so it is advisable to opt them out. You can do that via Advanced/Custom installation settings.

           

Instructions for Facebook video virus removal

To remove Facebook video virus, you have to employ a professional security software, such as Reimage or Plumbytes Anti-Malware. Malware might install various malicious files to the computer and web browsers. The worst part is that it might prevent users from removing these components manually. For this reason, you should employ a security software.

However, if you are still willing to remove the virus manually, you have to delete all suspicious components from the computer and web browsers. You should also reset the browsers in order to make sure that all malicious components were uninstalled entirely.

The latter step is especially important if you were hit by the Chrome Facebook video virus, you should reset the browser in order to eliminate malicious extensions: open Chrome Settings > go to Advanced > Reset and click“Reset” button. However, if Chrome reset does not work and the malicious messages continue spreading from your account, you have to uninstall the browser from your PC.

After Facebook video virus removal, you must reset Facebook password. Besides, you should also change passwords of other accounts. The malware is capable of tracking user's login data, so cyber criminals may have gotten access to other accounts as well.

Other way

1. Just to rule out the possibility of YOUR account being compromised, the easy/quick remedy is to simply change your Facebook password.

        

2. If you've ever logged onto FB via cell, log back in and make SURE you've fully logged out. Don't assume that clicking the logout button does it. Wait for the confirmation screen, even if it takes a couple minutes. If you don't get the confirmation, you're still logged in and no one needs your password, just your email address, to log into your account.
        

3. Changing your password should be enough to fix the problem. If you still get emails from people telling you they received the same kind of email, you might have a virus on your system that reads your Facebook even if you change it. Here are some things to try to clean your system. Please note that this will take about an hour or so to do. Do IN THIS ORDER.
        

The SECRETS of Philippines

The Philippines is a country located in Southeast Asia, in the Western Pacific, and is made up of more than 7,000 islands.

In fact, the Philippines is endowed with natural resources. It possesses one of the world’s greatest bio diversities, however, with these resources, the area became a prime target for European conquerors and other powers in the Far East during the colonial period.

The arrival of the Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan, in 1521, in Homonhon, Eastern Samar, marked the beginning of the Spanish rule of the Islands. Under the authority of Spain, Magellan had organized an expedition to the East Indies from 1519 to 1522.

In 1543, Spanish explorer Ruy López de Villalobos named the archipelago Las Islas Filipinas, in honor of Philip II of Spain. With the arrival of Miguel López de Legazpi from Mexico City, in 1565, the first Hispanic settlement in the archipelago was established. Thereafter, the Philippines became part of the Spanish Empire for more than 300 years.

During the Spanish rule, many horrible incidents occurred. Spain had to quell various indigenous revolts, and needless to say, these were quelled in a very brutal manner. Many of the Island’s natives lost their lives, with some summarily executed.  Again, there were several external military attacks from Chinese and Japanese pirates, the Dutch, the English, the Portuguese and the Muslims of Southeast Asia. Simply put, at the time, the natives didn’t stand a chance in obtaining their freedom.

British forces occupied the capital, Manila, from 1762 to 1764. Across these wars, the Spaniards would always conscript the natives to join the army. Many died during these needless and greedy wars. However, for the monarch rulers involved in the wars, it was worth fighting; it was about domination; it was about having access to trade and commerce… it was about building their empires. They never cared about the lives of the natives who were being destroyed with impunity.

In the 1890s, Filipino revolutionaries became tired of the colonial rule and demanded immediate and unconditional freedom.  But the colonial government would not tolerate this demand. Rather, the Spanish colonial government began a crackdown against those natives who were calling for their independence.

As a result, in 1892, Andrés Bonifacio established a secret society called the Katipunan. The Katipunan became an armed revolt where nationalists fought with a fundamental objective of winning independence from Spain.

As the independence war was ongoing in the Philippines, in 1898, the Spanish–American War began in Cuba. This war later reached the Philippines as the Spaniards had been badly beaten by the Americans in Cuba.

This gave the Filipino nationalists a great momentum to resist the overbearing and unforgiving Spanish rule. With the support of the United States, on June 12, 1898, the First Philippine Republic was established.

Spain agreed to cede the Philippines to the United States at the 1898 Treaty of Paris. A compensation of 20 million United States dollars was paid to Spain, according to the terms of the agreement. Spain packed its bags and left the Philippines for good. The Filipino nationalists thought the United States would give them the freedom they wanted, but the United States had other ideas—and didn’t wait long before also exploiting the country.

But the United States, having fought a costly war and paying $20 million to the Spaniards, would only live to regret their intentions. Increasingly, it became clear to the Filipino nationalists that the United States would not recognize and respect the nascent of the First Philippine Republic.

This led to the Philippine–American War. The United States had bought a war from Spain; Spain had left the islands, hat in hand and smiling. The United States employed a brutal warfare, hoping to defeat the Filipino nationalists. The war resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of combatants, as well as a couple of hundred thousand civilians—mostly from a cholera epidemic.

The Filipino nationalists made rapid advances against the Americans. However, when they were close to negotiating for independence with the Americans, their plans for independence was interrupted by World War II. Japan invaded the territory in 1942, establishing a puppet government—the Second Philippine Republic—under the leadership of José P. Laurel.

Many atrocities and war crimes were committed during the war, such as the Bataan Death March and the Manila massacre that culminated during the Battle of Manila. In 1944, the Allied Forces employed a strategy of island hopping towards the Philippine Archipelago, in the process, retaking territory conquered by the Japanese Forces.

The Filipino guerrilla fighters also proved very strong against the Japanese army. The Allied Forces supplied the guerrillas with logistics so that they could harass the Japanese Army and take control of the rural jungles and mountainous areas, amounting to about half of the Philippine archipelago. Many Filipinos hoped and believed that liberation from the Japanese would bring them freedom, and their already-promised independence by the Americans before the outbreak of the war.

While the guerrillas were engaging the Japanese in the jungle, the Allied Forces also took on the Japanese navy at the Leyte Gulf. According to the United States Naval Institute, this battle is the largest naval battle in human history. Japan was beaten and the Philippines was liberated. In 1945, the Allied Forces officially won the war after the atomic bombing of the two Japanese cities—Hiroshima and Nagasaki—by the United States.

In total, by the end of the war, it was estimated that over a million Filipinos had died. They had paid dearly for their freedoms, exchanging it for their lives.

On October 24, 1945, the Philippines became one of the founding members of the United Nations. The following year, on July 4, 1946, the Philippines became formally recognized by the United States as an independent nation during the presidency of Manuel Roxas.

This is the brief history of the Philippines. It is indeed centuries of tyranny, death and destruction for those who lived it. Never again, should this happen in human history.
