New York - Social networking website MySpace.com may have been too friendly with a worm.
The worm steals log-in credentials and spreads spam that promotes adware sites, according to the IDG News Service via PC World's website.
The worm attacks when a user visits a MySpace profile infected with an embedded QuickTime movie.
The video that loads carry with them a bogus menu.
The site, owned by News Corp, has more than 70 million registered users.
