Insecurity in FaceBook Captcha

Malware purveyors have managed to break the Facebook CAPTCHA (completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart), allowing them to automate the creation of Facebook pages. The malicious pages are being used to send links to malicious websites that promote scareware. The pages all have the same photograph, but have different user names. Facebook is taking steps to identify the rogue pages and disable them.
