Heres What You Should Try....
- Alright first of all, Reset your password. multiple times if even. log out EVERYTIME your done with Facebook. Run a virus scan and if its not being recognized, try software like Spybot Search and Destroy, Malwarebytes, or Ad-Aware. There all free. if this doesn't work, you might have to end your Facebook account. To my knowledge, it does not affect mac computers, but it does affect anyones accounts who get it. Be safe, and good luck.
