Received this from a friend on Facebook I have reason to trust.

PLEASE READ AND REPOST!
WARNING: there is a video circulating around Facebook of a BBC video of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, supposedly made by US troops. It is a Virus!!!!! Spread the news because it's circulating fast!!!!

Yeah, I'm normally pretty virus savvy but this one fooled me today on a friend's page. It showed a video thumbnail, like normal, so I clicked on it and it took me to a page with a captcha you had to answer before they would let you load the video.... except it wouldn't let you enter anything into it. There was a counter on the left hand side of the page...like a web-traffic counter. Presumable how many people that had fooled into clicking on the link?
Anyway....I didn't seem to get any virus from this...just seemed like a prank.
