Facebook representatives were not immediately available for crimmall.com comment.
Sophos says that this is probably not the same as that Kaspersky Labs flagged last week; Kaspersky confirmed on Friday that the two are different.
Additionally, Sophos says it has not yet completed its investigation of the issue and www.sangrokm.com has said that the worm may not be restricted to Facebook.

In the past, Sophos has warned of , dodiomall.co.kr and has put out a general warning to companies that security issues might be a graver issue than productivity when it comes to choosing whether to block access to these sites at the office. "Companies need to make their own mind up as to whether they want to allow their users to access websites like Facebook and MySpace during office hours," Sophos analyst Graham Cluley said in a release.
"If workers are allowed to be given access to these sites then it's vital that they do not put their personal and corporate data at risk, and are protected from web-based infections."
