Yesterday, while on facebook and one other reported to me as well, problems with their computer now.

Not sure what happened, yes, we both play the zynga game, which had problems on the network yesterday, but.........I have my computer setup through the control panel, that when i click a file, i only have to click once and it's done............as of yesterday, that has been messed with and i don't know if something got in my system, i did a scan with the current windows livecare i have, (the previious paid for version they are ending-says i have four months left), then went to the net and did their security scan, all showed nothing wrong................but on the computer and on the net, something is wrong.

While friend believes facebook is doing changes and that's what's going on...........why should it affect my mouse clicks, online or not online???

so, question is, any knowledge of any hacking or stuff getting in your system via facebook last night, date of 1/6/10??

Yes, there is plenty of stuff running around on facebook. ALWAYS.

Not sure if you read my recent link on them about the RockYou app. For them and myspace being messed and hacked etc.. but yes It could be. But also could be if they are changing there coding for what they have it set to open links and such. Like in a new window, or click once, twice etc.. All of that. All though it also depends on how you have your computer set as well. Plus 'yes' something could of got in and changed your settings as well. Like through your browser for that and/or homepage settings and all kind of stuff.

I would run a full scan of what i said in your other posts in the Norton thread. Run that fully and see (be sure to read that post first tho on my reply).

It might not pick up nothing as the change has already been made if something did change. It will only pick it up obviously if you already had Norton install when it was being changed right at that exact time... but it will pick up if something malicious is in there and is going to continue making random changes unwanted or asked for by you.

Good luck.

PS~ Might just be something you never noticed before also. Or the app itself. Not facebook. as the apps are mostly 3rd party so it's not facebook doing it. Its the app creators or people hacking in the apps systems and such etc etc as example. Either way run that and see what it says or does first. Then post back & let us know what's up then.

i put norton on after this happened, ran it for a full computer scan and all came up clean as far as anything malicious goes., so, umm...............guess i'll mark it resolved.

No, i didn't see anything here on the rock you app, but i haven't logged on here since i asked that question, until now.
