Here goes an update on secure protocol from one of our fans.
Facebook changed something again and failed to let us know. Look at your URL address (the top box on your screen.)
If you see "http" instead of "https" you DO NOT have a secure session and can be HACKED.
Go to Account -> Account Settings -> Account Security -> click Change.
Check box (secure browsing), click Save.
FB has automatically set it on the non-secure setting!
Do your friends a huge favor, copy and re-post.
