Tell ESET about Facebook malware

Here's something I noticed today on the ESET Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/esetsoftware. (There is, of course, also an ESET North America page at http://www.facebook.com/esetusa, but this is the European page. There are lots of local ESET pages too, too many to list here.)

As Facebook continues to attract more pages and videos containing malware, we welcome your help in blocking these. If you discover a page or video, where you knowingly did not click the “Like” button, and it shows you as a “Like”, report it to us. Send us an email to samples@eset.com with the subject “Auto-like Mail” with the corresponding URL link. All such links will be reviewed and blocked if threats or malicious content is confirmed.

Sounds like a good idea to me.
