MySpace becomes hotbed for new Adware scheme

The potentially dangerous links look like normal embedded YouTube videos, except when a user clicks on it, it will lead them to a Windows Media video that creates a pop-up installer window asking the user to accept an end-user license agreement, which will install the Adware program Zango Cash.
