Is it just me or does that sound like some very scary stuff?

Isn’t demonstrating a potential threat from a Youtube video, using a Youtube video a little dumb?

@Clangnuts:
Yes it is

Interesting…Fortunately virus protection at this point and time seems to be hanging tough with the writers these days.

That’s true, and people are becoming better informed with regard to safe surfing habits.

Do we get infected only after we downloaded the video onto our hard disk, or by just simply streaming the video on YouTube itself?

Brown Baron — Thu, 14 Jun 2007 10:52:40 +0000

Your computer gets compromised while you’re streaming the video

Well nowadays watching YouTube can get infected. I don’t know what else will get us into trouble

Probably a lot more

Anything that gets popular is a potential source of problems.. People find new ways to compromise your PC daily
