Warning: Don't approve comments automatically in Friendster!
24 November 2008 || 8:32 PM
Preview of how the message actually looks like: click me! A screenshot of holidaygifts.fileave.com: click me!
This is a big warning to all of us who uses Friendster. You might never see your profile or comments anymore if you accidentally approve this kind of comment or testimonial.
As you can see in the first picture, there is a "script" kind of html code written below the message. If your Friendster account automatically approves comments, you better change your settings now or you'll be surprised. If you will ask me, my Friendster doesn't automatically approve. But why did this happen? Hmm. It's all because I'm so much in a hurry to go to school. I was already late! HAHAHA! I just scanned the comment I received (I don't even have to read it seriously because she's just a schoolmate of mine from ParSci).
The first thing I did was to do necessary changes in my site just to fix the mess. I even changed my url! argh. (I better change it again) I even tried to stop "my comments" from fully loading all of its contents before it will get redirected to that damn site again. I did that so I could delete that damn comment. But when I clicked on the "delete"- POOF! It returned to holidaygifts.fileave.com again!
Waah. In cases like this, the next thing I thought to be the best solution is to contact Friendster. I even sent an e-mail to help@friendster.com for this problem. Guess what they did? They just sent me links to these "FAQs" like:
1. What types of photos can I upload to my profile? (Does this have any connection with my problem?!) 2. What are Testimonials and Comments. (I'm not illiterate!) 3. Security: Check Login Pages Carefully. (Give me a connection, please!!!)
In other words, they didn't do anything. They didn't even try to open my account and delete it.
When I finally arrived home after school, I checked my e-mail. I received this message from the one who sent it to me. She wrote there this message: "easier way: guys..may mas easier way pla pra maaus fs profyl nio..iSAFE mode nio muna daw dun sa SETTINGS..tpos idelete nio na ung comment..den un...ok na daw..heh pag ayaw yan..eto ung mjo mtagal na way: guys.. sori tlga sa mga nadamay nung hacker ng frendster ko..pare pareho taung victims.kabadtrip pero alam ko na panu madelete ung comment na galing dun sa olod fs account ko...ung comment na di ako gumawa "romantic love sumting". kelangan madelete un. so here's how go to this site http://noscript.net/getit. den click nio ung "add to firefox" den install na un.. ok nio ung nakalagay na "restart firefox" den magautomatic magoopen ulit firefox.. den maglog in na kau sa frendster account nio. dapat maclick nio muna ung "temporarily allow friendster.com" sa lower part ng window".. den idelete nio na ung comment na galing sa old fs ko "romantic love lang" once naopen nio na profyl nio tapos.if u lyk, u can uninstall na ung dinownload kanina. aion.hope maaus **if di nio magawa.pm me. i'l do it 4 u.pero i nid to know ur email add and pass.baguhin nio na lang after."
She said the first thing you should do is to change your settings to Safe Mode. After that you can now delete the comment. If that won't work, just do the other alternative (I won't summarize it anymore because it's too long!). Thanks to her I was finally able to delete the damn comment and fix my profile. I just hope that hacker will burn in hell. He/she is so nuts to think that what she did is funny. BALIW SIYA.
Now, I've learned something today ~ "If you're late, don't use Friendster." or "Safe Mode is the best medicine." or "Tanga ako, hindi ko alam may safe mode pala sa Friendster." juk. This is it... Don't always do things in a hurry, because it might lead to faults you might not be able to fix or change anymore.
