This is one hard site to navigate around ! ... I've been trying to register for 2 days and there is NO where to do it.. .the sign in page is useless. You really need to make registering a lot easier. I think I maybe registered now i had to create an account to write here ? and if I am, I found it by mistake.

Now I'm here I would like to ask this question...

Has anyone had this message using Firefox with Facebook, it logged me out and won't let me log back in, keeps giving me the below message,

        • It looks like your computer is being affected by malware. We’ll help you fix the problem to keep your account secure and prevent malware from spreading to friends.

Malware is software that tries to steal personal information and causes problems when you use Facebook. Clicking or sharing links that contain spam can give your computer malware.**** I can log in with Chrome.. but still get the same message through firefox, and that's after uninstalling, taking all traces of it out of the register and re-installing it, and I also downloaded Malwarebytes and ran it, but still no luck.

All help will be much appreciated :)

Cheers Louise
