Twitter battles Koobface

So your wondering what is Koobface. Well Koobface is a MalwareMalwarebytes Anti-virus / Anti-malware program. What is does is monitors for when a person logs into their twitter account. It will send out messages that has a link in it for them to click. Here is the kicker because twitter uses a service to shorten the URLs you really don't know what you are clicking on. Ppl will then click the link only to get infected with koobface which then infects the persons pc.
