Your browser has been infected with malware. You may have been infected when you clicked on a link to watch a "shocking video" from a friend's status update or visited a website claiming to offer special features on Facebook. For example, there are sites that claim they can show you who's viewing your timeline, change the color of your timeline or help you remove your timeline completely. These features don't exist.

I had the same message on Facebook today.
It came from that Southwest Airline 2 Free Ticket Ad.
I ran virus scan, deleted all temp files, changed my Facebook Account, changed my email account and it still says the same message after Facebook said my account was no longer locked.
I'm still researching because if it's no longer locked then it should work but hasn't.
The message that says it's locked IS the virus from what I gather.
