  Most of the links to Youtube contains the virus. See the Google search results, but don't click on any of the links in the blogs.

  Some are Youtube links. It leads to a real Youtube video which downloads the virus file. But most are fake Youtube links.

  Viewing your blog will not infect them. Clicking on the link will, if you didn't delte the posts, that is.
