Twits beware
Twitter scrambles to block worms
Twitter has patched a flaw in its website that was being exploited to pump out pop-up messages and links to porn sites.
Initially, users only had to move their mouse over a message containing a link - not click it - to open it in the browser.
The code was spread by worms, self-replicating, malicious pieces of code.
Thousands of users were caught out by the flaw, including Sarah Brown, the wife of the UK's former Prime Minister.

I'm glad I keep well clear of these sites
